We seek to understand how pregnancy and early life experience shape neurodevelopment and brain plasticity. Through cutting-edge molecular neuroscience and genomics, we investigate fundamental questions at the intersection of neurobiology and reproductive health. Ultimately, we hope that our work will improve the lives of pregnant women and newborns. - ## Research Interests [Development & Plasticity](/research-interests/development-plasticity) [Gene Expression](/research-interests/gene-expression) [Neuropathology & Disease](/research-interests/neuropathology-disease) - ## Research Techniques [Behavioral](/research-technique/behavioral) [Computational](/research-technique/computational) [Embryological](/research-technique/embryological) [Molecular Biological and Genetic](/research-technique/molecular-biological-and-genetic) [Neuronal Tissue and Cell Culture](/research-technique/neuronal-tissue-and-cell-culture) - ## People [Faculty](/people/faculty)
