I am a postdoctoral guest researcher since June-2016 in Stork’s lab. I am interested in the molecular and neural circuit mechanisms underlying higher brain functions as well as their dysregulations in neurological disorders. My current study aims to understand how stress leads to molecular and circuit level changes in the brain which result in fear memory. To this end, primary culture, biochemical, and behavioral studies are employed.
