We study typical and atypical development of emotional and social behaviour across childhood and adolescence.

Epilepsy

Our goal is understanding the different forms of epilepsy and developing new ways to treat this potentially devastating disease. We work to understand the underlying causes of human epilepsies, from faults in specific cell types, to changes across brain circuits.
