Tak Pan Wong is an Associate Professor at 缅北强奸 and a researcher at the Douglas Mental Health University Institute. Dr. Wong is interested in understanding the biological underpinnings of stress-related psychiatric disorders. Using a combination of behavioral, electrophysiological, and molecular techniques, he studies molecular mechanisms of how stress affects the communication between neurons in rodent models that mimic psychopathologies of disorders such as PTSD, depression and schizophrenia. Findings from this research program will help us understand the contribution of dysfunctional neuronal communication to stress-related psychiatric disorders and provide rationales for developing therapeutic targets for these disorders.
