Welcome to the Neuroscience of Memory, Mood, & Aging Laboratory!

Big news! The lab is moving to UCLA starting July 1, 2024! We will maintain lab presence at Rice University for the next 2-3 years and start building up the lab at UCLA, so there will be ongoing projects happening at both Rice University and UCLA!

This page will remain active along with our new UCLA website: memory.ibp.ucla.edu

We perform basic and translational research to understand how our memory system works and how this system goes awry in memory and mood disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease and depression. We utilize state-of-the-art high-resolution imaging techniques, PET imaging of amyloid and tau pathologies, and novel experimental paradigms to understand brain-behavior relationships.
