My research program is aimed at developing neuronal systems and the alterations to development that result subsequent to exposures to alcohol and other drugs. These studies have focused on immediate alterations such as apoptotic neuronal death and the intracellular events responsible. Lately we have been developing a more robust approach to explore such alterations using a functional neuroanatomical approach. This approach involves immunofluorescence labeling of specific cellular structures, at various developmental times, followed by confocal microscopy analysis of structural neuronal features characteristic of normal developmental as well as specific drug-induced alterations.
