The lab has three main research interests, outlined below:
- Modeling Neurodevelopmental Disorders in Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Derived-Neurons and Organoids
- Transcriptional and Epigenetic Regulation of Human Cortical Interneuron Development and Its Dysregulation in Neurodevelopmental Disorders
- Gene Regulatory Networks That Regulate Neural Cell Fate Acquisition
Neurite extension assay: control versus Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) affected proband-derived neurons 
Analysis of synaptic punctae in control versus Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) affected proband-derived neurons 
Comparison of gene expression profiles of neurons from an unaffected mother and her son, the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) affected proband 
Differentially regulated genes in the control versus Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) affected proband-derived neurons include a network involved in neuronal migration 
Interneurons (red) and excitatory neurons (green) were cocultured as neuroids to measure migration of interneurons. Comparison of migration in an unaffected mother (UM) and her son, the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) affected proband 
A human embryonic stem cell colony 
Neuronal differentiation of hPSC-derived neural progenitors 
Differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells into astrocytes (GFAP staining) 
Regionally restricted expression of molecular markers in the mouse embryonic neural tube 
Cortical interneurons differentiated from human pluripotent stem cells
