At the Calvigioni Lab, we explore the intricate neural mechanisms that govern emotional behavioral states and mental resilience. By decoding how specific brain circuits process positive and negative experiences, we strive to answer fundamental questions about adaptive emotional behaviors.
Our research bridges systems neuroscience, molecular biology, and endocrinology to shed light on how hormones, neural activity, and life experiences interact to shape mental health across the lifespan.
Whether you are a future team member eager to explore the complexities of the brain or a funding partner seeking to support transformative research, join us in pushing the boundaries of knowledge and transforming mental health science.
Anxiety and depression are among the leading causes of disability worldwide, yet our ability to prevent and treat these conditions remains limited. The Calvigioni Lab aims to bridge this gap by uncovering the neural mechanisms that shape emotional behaviors and vulnerability.
Beyond advancing science, we are committed to training the next generation of neuroscientists. Through mentorship, collaboration, and open communication, we aim to equip young researchers with the tools and vision to push the boundaries of neuroscience.
