Our research focuses on the neural and computational basis of learning, decision making, and olfaction. These functions are disrupted in several neuropsychiatric disorders, such as addiction, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson’s disease, and frontotemporal dementia. Our work may help to better understand and treat these disorders.
