Elucidating the genetic basis of psychiatric disorders

Our laboratory seeks to advance precision psychiatry by synthesizing disparate data types including genetics, genomics, and medical bioinformatics, and leveraging complementary technologies in human and model organisms.

Our team focuses on the causal factors contributing to psychiatric disorders and dimensional phenotypes, particularly substance use disorders and conditions characterized by high impulsivity. Leveraging alliances forged across academic, industry and community partners, our research aims to advance precision psychiatry using genetic, genomic, medical bioinformatic, and cross-species translational approaches.
