Our Work
In Vivo Neurotransmitter Measurements
We study neurotransmitters that are involved in mood and emotional processes, in particular serotonin, histamine, glutamate and metal ions.
Depression Diagnostics and Drug Screening
By measuring neurotransmitters in the brain and in model systems outside the brain, we are searching for biomarkers to tell us the etiology and prevalence of depression.
