Neurobiology of Metabolism (NeuroBM) Lab

Dr. Onder’s overarching research interest is to understand how the synaptic circuitry is rewired in response to environmental and metabolic demands as well as in the context of neurological disorders and she is planning to achieve this by studies both at the cellular and circuit level using molecular biology and electrophysiology as well as using unbiased top-down genomic approaches such as single cell sequencing.

Research Interests: Synaptic plasticity, GABAA receptors, neuropharmacology, metabolic adaptation, single cell genomics, molecular mechanisms of neuropsychiatric disorders, mitochondria, energy balance regulation, circadian rhythms…
