J-F is the principal investigator. He enjoys seeing the look of distress in the eyes of lab members when he puts on a lab coat to do begin an experiment, which we inevitably have to finish for him.

Emilie manages lab operations and contributes her wide breath of skills to most research projects in the lab. She also asks all the tough questions at our lab meetings!

Sab studies the mechanisms underlying defects in cortical synaptic transmission in specific mouse models we have developed. She shows great patience when explaining electrophy-siology to a bunch of developmental biologists.

Sydney examines the effects of alterations in neuronal wiring on innate and social behaviours. When not in the behaviour room, she makes sure lab members are properly caffeinated.

Anastasia studies the development of inhibitory interneurons in a mouse model of Autism Spectrum Disorder. She holds the lab record for the number of intramural sports team she plays on.

Fannia studies the molecular mechanisms that modulate dendritic branching in the olfactory system.

Edan studies cortical interneuron development.

Mary studies the molecular mechanisms that modulate dendritic branching in olfactory systems.

Lina examines how transsynaptic cell adhesion complexes regulate synapse function.
