My long-term research goal is to understand how neuroadaptations induced by adolescent alcohol exposure interact with secondary insults in adulthood, such as stress, to dysregulate emotional behaviors. I am currently focused on the role of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 in mediating adolescent alcohol-induced disturbances in preclinical models of negative affective states. |
