Exciting News!
Daniela has been awarded the 2024 NARSAD Young Investigator Award! Honored to join this community of talented young scientists in our shared mission to advance mental health research.

Welcome Calle and Christina!
Calle Hedemo and Christina Alisia Heinle are the first students to join the lab for a summer internship!

Welcome, Chiara!
Chiara Forastieri joins the lab, bringing her expertise in epigenetics and cellular responses to stress. Chiara is the first postdoctoral fellow to join the lab! We are very excited to have you in the team. Her knowledge will be invaluable in advancing our research on emotional resilience and vulnerability!

The beauty of the Brain
Science and art are deeply connected—both driven by curiosity, creativity, and the pursuit of understanding. Here, we share stunning images of the brain (and occasionally the body) to inspire wonder, curiosity, and share our passion for neuroscience. By making the invisible visible, we aim to convey our excitement for the beauty of scientific discovery and the intricate complexity of the brain.
