Research interests
I have a long-standing interest in studying the pathological changes in brain and behavior which occur in response to addictive drugs. For the past nine years, my work has focused on identifying neuroadaptations in the glutamate neurotransmitter system produced by chronic self-administration of addictive drugs such as nicotine, alcohol and cocaine. I then target these neuroadaptations with translational compounds to reduce drug-seeking. To that end, my research involves assessing brain changes in reward circuitry following self- administration of addictive drugs using western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and microdialysis.
