Over the last few decades, the lab has investigated many areas of research including the neurobiology of autism,
the neuroanatomy and neurophysiology of the primate brain especially the learning and memory areas and the limbic system, and the
effect of prenatal protein malnutrition on brain development. Below we highlight some important journal articles/chapters that have emerged from our research group over the years.
