We would like to thank the staff, researchers, donors, foundations, and public investment that make our work possible.
Public Investment:
Our work builds on decades of broad investment by the American people in research and development. Through funding by the National Institute of Health, Defense Agency Research Project Administration, National Science Foundation, and many others, researchers work together to improve our understanding of the natural world and how it interacts with human biology in health and disease. We would like to thank all Americans for putting their trust in us as stewards of this great endeavor.
Staff Support:
We would like to thank the administrative staff of the Institute of Neuroscience and the Department of Biology for all their hard work in keeping everything running smoothly. We would also like to thank the animal care staff for their tireless care and attention to keep our animals happy and healthy.
Funding:
The Klingenstein-Simons Fellowship Award will support our work to understand how reward circuits change across multiple timescales.
The Brain & Behavior Research Foundation awarded the NARSAD Young Investigator Grant to support our efforts to understand how different neuronal cell types contribute to motivated behavior.
The Brain Research Foundation awarded the Fay/Frank Seed Grant to jumpstart our work on cell type-specific changes in addiction.
A generous gift from Dave and Nancy Petrone will help us launch our first experiments in the lab. Thank you both for your support and vision to bolster research, student life, and scholarship on campus.
The NIMH has generously funded Emily’s postdoctoral training, enabling career development and the generation of new tissue clearing protocols and applications:
