Center for Neurobiology of Stress Resilience and Psychiatric Disorders
We strive to discover novel approaches to the prevention and treatment of psychiatric illness by discovering neural mechanisms of stress vulnerability and resilience and the factors that protect individuals from developing psychiatric disorders.
