Neurobiology of sexual dimorphism in social and reproductive behavior

We study morphogenesis, cell biology and function of hypothalamic neurons, which regulate appetite, stress and social behavior

We study the molecular foundations and applied potential of mammalian pluripotent stem cells in early organ development, germ cell formation and whole synthetic embryo generation ex utero

The synaptic basis for sexual dimorphism in the nervous system

Genomic & state-dependent regulation of neural circuit plasticity
