  overall_research_project_description: 'The brain uses chemicals to provide signaling across neurons, classically referred to as neurotransmitters. There is a growing understanding that there are many more neurochemicals that are involved in this process than previously understood. We are interested in understanding the role of neuropeptides in sensory processing. We use the olfactory system as a model to study this.  '

  research_tasks_for_student_research_assistant_s_: 'The student will begin by learning about the different techniques used in the laboratory by shadowing a current lab member (e.g., graduate student or postdoctoral fellow). As the student develops experience, they will participate in data collection and analysis. This can include learning how to analyze in vivo calcium imaging data which can include learning MATLAB and other software programs. Other experiments may include learning to perform histology on mouse brain tissue (e.g., preparing samples on slides for imaging), processing of histological tissue (e.g., immunohistochemistry), imaging and documenting the slides.
