About
I am interested in the molecular basis of memory. I want to understand how our brains store and use information.
My research is focused on the experience-dependent changes that occur in the nervous system during learning and memory at the most fundamental level: the individual synapse.
I use optical technologies, such as time-lapse two-photon fluorescence microscopy, together with genetic manipulations to visualize the selective changes that take place in the structure and the molecular composition of hippocampal and cortical dendritic spines during events of synaptic plasticity like LTP and LTD.
I also want to understand how synaptic plasticity is impaired in diseases like the Fragile X Syndrome and how can we restore these alterations.
