The Haggarty Lab
The Haggarty lab aims to uncover and manipulate the cellular mechanisms underlying neuroplasticity and related pathways for the treatment of various neuropsychiatric and neurological disorders.
Through pioneering studies and training of the next generation of translational neuroscientists we seek to revolutionize our understanding of brain health and realize the promise of precision medicine.
