The Molecular Neuroscience laboratory aims to perform high quality research into the molecular mechanisms underlying normal neurodevelopment and neurodevelopmental disorders, particularly autism. This basic research is done with an eye towards translational research into therapeutics that can help individuals with neurodevelopmental and other neurological disorders.

The most recent specific subjects being explored within these aims are the gut-brain axis in autism, epigenetics, and psychedelics

The tools used in our lab include behavioral and molecular examination of transgenic mouse models as well as in-depth molecular profiling of biological samples from individuals diagnosed with autism.
