- Interest
- •• Dr. Kabbaj is accepting a graduate students in collaboration with Dr. Z Wang. •• The focus of our research is to understand the neurobiology underlying individual differences and sex differences in depression and drug addiction. Another focus of our research is to examine epigenetic mechanisms underlying social behaviors.
