Behavioral Genetics and Neurobiology
|
The following GGR laboratories are interested in behavioral genetics and neurobiology
(Edwin) Ted Abel |
The molecular basis of synaptic plasticity, learning and memory; the molecular basis of sleep/wake regulation. |
| Edward S. Brodkin |
Genetic analysis of social behaviors (aggressive and affiliative behaviors) and related brain phenotypes in mouse models relevant to autism and schizophrenia. |
Maja Bucan
|
Genetic dissection of complex behaviors in mice; Functional genomics |
| Alice Chen-Plotkin |
I am interested in neurodegenerative diseases; my research approach uses genomic-scale screens to identify leads for downstream mechanistic follow-up in cell culture systems. |
Douglas Epstein
|
Regulation of Sonic hedgehog signaling in development and disease |
Thomas Jongens
|
Modeling Fragile X Mental Retardation in Drosophila; Germ Cell Specification |
Kazuko Nishikura
|
RNA metabolism/processing. RNA editing, RNAi mechanism, apoptosis, cell cycle regulation. |
| David Raizen |
The regulation and purpose of sleep-like behavior in C. elegans |
Amita Sehgal
|
Molecular basis of behavior |
| Zhaolan (Joe) Zhou |
Epigenetic Control of Experience-dependent Gene Expression in Brain Development and Disease |
Other CAMB laboratories (with research related to GGR) interested in behavioral genetics and neurobiology.
| Greg Bashaw |
Signaling mechanisms that function during attractive and repulsive axon guidance. |
| Michael Granato |
Axonal guidance and motor behavior regulation in the zebrafish. |
| Eric Weinberg |
Pattern formation, neural development, ear development in the zebrafish embryo. |
