Our interactions with the outside world trigger changes in neurons that are critical for proper brain development and higher cognitive function. Research in the Greenberg laboratory focuses on the mechanisms by which experience-driven neuronal activity regulates gene expression that promotes the maturation and refinement of neural circuits. A number of human brain developmental disorders, including autism, have now been linked to abnormalities in these brain pathways. Our lab studies the underlying basis of such neurological disorders.
