My research interest is in the input-dependent and genetic mechanisms that control the developmental assembly of forebrain neurons into circuits. Specifically, my work focuses on identifying the gene expression programs that enable distinct subtypes of forebrain neurons to assemble into specific functional circuits, and understanding how sensory experience regulates these differentiation programs during development.
