Our Research
Below is a list of Simons-funded projects currently underway in separate laboratories in the Brain and Cognitive Sciences Department located on Vassar Street in Cambridge. With specialties ranging from language to memory to vision to genetics, these researchers will combine their findings and assist each lab in reaching the greater goal of better diagnosis and treatment of developmental disorders.

"Evaluating RNAseq methodology in autism ipsCell neuronal progenitors"
"Automated monitoring and phenotyping of rodent behavior"
"Elucidating circuit-level dysfunctions in autism using high-throughput connection mapping"
"Synaptic and circuitry mechanisms of repetitive behaviors in autism"
