Research
Our group studies the molecular genetic control of mammalian forebrain development with a focus on the mechanisms that generate neuronal diversity in the embryonic and postnatal telencephalon. This work has relevance to the development of cell replacement therapies for neurological disorders as well as in the understanding and potential modeling of certain aspects of neuropsychiatric disorders affecting children.
