Studies in our lab are instigated at the level involving neurotransmission/receptor activity, bio-chemical processes, and neural circuitry to understand the neuromodulation of neuropeptides or endocannabinoids on affective disorders, epilepsy, pain and addiction using animal models. Studies on underlying mechanism of functional foods for reducing the neuropsychiatric disorders mainly anxiety, depression and addiction are being carried out. In addition our lab is interested in repurposing of drug molecules in stress-related psychiatric disorders including depression and anxiety.
