Our team is focused on the exploration of the functional connectivity of hypothalamic neurons and manipulate axonal neuropeptide release within the rodent forebrain by viral, optogenetic, pharmacogenetic, electrophysiological, behavioral and fMRI means. Besides, we evaluate the role of select genes in hypothalamic neurons controlling stress response, metabolism and reproduction.
