Research
Our goal & approaches →
Exteroception →
How aversive sensory and social stimuli — pain, threat and social stress — are detected and transformed by defined circuits into protective behavior.

Interoception →
How the brain detects disruption of internal homeostasis and drives restorative responses, using thirst as a model.

Neuron–Glia Interactions →
How astrocytes shape circuits that respond to aversive and homeostatic challenges — including lateral septal astrocytes in stress responses.
TWIK-1 plays distinct roles in spinal and peripheral sensory circuits controlling mechanical sensitivity and neuropathic hypersensitivity
