Project Details
Description
Many studies support that altered presynaptic dopamine levels play a central role in schizophrenia. In an effort to uncover the signaling pathways that modulate presynaptic dopamine stores, Dr. Karam will use a genetic screen to identify novel regulators of presynaptic dopamine accumulation and release. This research can guide the development of pharmacological interventions for schizophrenia.
