Endocannabinoid signaling in the brain
Our major objective is to elucidate the molecular and structural organization of endocannabinoid signaling together with its physiological and pathophysiological significance. Recently we have extended our research to novel, phylogenetically-related lipid signaling pathways and our team has also been actively involved in the development of new super-resolution imaging approaches to facilitate nanoscale molecular imaging in intact brain circuits.
