MA by Research Molecular Psychiatry

University of Lancashire

Our group investigates a number of psychiatric and related illnesses including drug abuse, autism, sleep and schizophrenia. We are also interested in basic neuroscience, including understanding the mechanisms involved in neurotransmitter release and synaptic plasticity. Our research uses numerous cutting-edge techniques from genome-wide association studies (GWAS), through brain slices (voltammetry and patch-clamp) to rodent behavioural models.
