Deciphering the role of striatal CB1 receptors in defensive behaviours

CORDIS · observation · Publication date unknown

lying CB1-mediated mechanisms, to provide the first evidence of how CB1 receptors regulate different defensive styles. To achieve this, I will combine my expertise in neuropharmacology, behaviour and machine learning with that of the host lab in cannabinoid biology, circuit manipulation and molecular biology. By leveraging cutting-edge behavioural, viral-genetic and bioinformatic tools and expertise from specialists in the field, DefenCB1 will shed light on new mechanisms regulating defensive responses and provide important insights into how striatal CB1 receptors may be implicated in threat response and psychiatric disorders characterized by maladaptive coping. It will also advance my skills and propel my career as an independent researcher in neuropsychopharmacology."
