Laboratory Description:
We are interested in molecular bases of sleep and sleep disorders. We use the mouse as our model and perform genetic analysis in several sleep disorders including narcolepsy, Kleine-Levin syndrome, and sleepwalking. techniques used are: transcriptome, transgenesis, metabolome, genotyping (SNP based microarray).
