At the Department research in neuroendocrinology and basic neuroscience is conducted. We are using models of chronic stress and depression and also pharmacogenomic research of the drugs used in the mood and neurological disorders.
We have ongoing collaboration with:
- Karolinska Institut, Sweden – Section for Pharmacogenomics
- Sackler Medical Faculty University of Tel Aviv, Israel – Department for human and molecular genetics and biochemistry
- Ben Gurion University Beer Sheva, Israel – Department for Physiology and Cell Biology
- Goethe University, Germany - Laboratory for translational psychiatry
