Our mission is to understand the neuronal circuits involved in obsessive compulsive disorder and other anxiety disorders. And to investigate the effects of serotonergic psychedelic and non-psychedelic drugs that increase neuronal plasticity.
We are using a clinical to preclinical approach that facilitate translation.
We are experts in techniques like: metabolic connectivity mapping using PET, neuronal modulation using infrared neuronal stimulation and chemogenetics, advanced behavioral analysis and in vivo and in vitro pharmacology / PKPD modelling.
