In the Pursuit of Mental Well-being: Robert H. Felix and His Role in the Establishment of Mental Health in America
Dr. Lee ’ s talk will address mental well-being in mid-20th century America. Realizing the necessity of a comprehensive plan for mental health in the U.S. after World War II, the discipline of psychiatry found themselves unprepared for the new blueprint. To overcome the long-existing limits, psychiatry needed to transform its old look which had seemingly been esoteric, institution-based, and even unscientific. The National Mental Health Act of 1946 was a striking signal to break away from its unpopular image of discipline. Robert H. Felix, the first director of the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), was one of t...

Neuroscience Seminar: Targeting the Ventral Pallidum to Modulate Compulsive Behavior
Research in Dr. Creed's lab focuses on how chronic pain, stress and addictive drugs induces changes in neural circuits that underlie symptoms of psychiatric disorders. The lab uses a range of techniques including in vivo and patch clamp electrophysiology, genetic sequencing, neuroanatomy, optogenetics and behavior to study changes in function in the ventral basal ganglia in models of addiction, mood and chronic pain disorders. The main goal of the lab is to leverage insight from circuit studies to develop novel neuromodulation therapies for these disorders, including deep brain stimulation (DBS) and targeted drug delivery ...

NIH Director's Seminar Series: Neuronal-origin extracellular vesicles in the circulation as a source of biomarkers for brain diseases
Extracellular Vesicles enriched for neuronal origin (NEVs) can be isolated from plasma by immunoaffinity capture. NEVs provide biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis, disease monitoring, and therapeutic response in Alzheimer ’ s disease and related dementias (AD/ADRD), and, increasingly, other neurologic and psychiatric disorders. NEV biomarkers for preclinical AD have been validated in large longitudinal cohorts, such as the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging. Moreover, NEV biomarkers can identify clinical subgroups (e.g., Parkinson ’ s disease patients with cognitive impairment), facilitating the development of Preci...

2022 Stephen E. Straus Lecture: From the Mouths of Babes: What Can Research on Babies, Moms, Stress, and Substance Use Tell Us About Resilience?
Stress and adversity experienced during early development can exert a profound and persistent imprint on our physiology, brain, and health across the lifespan. This imprint can lead to long-term health outcomes ranging from substance use and depression to obesity and cardiovascular disease. There is also emerging evidence that stress and adversity may be transmitted from one generation to the next. However, protective experiences may prevent or mitigate these effects. This lecture will provide examples of findings from Dr. Laura Stroud ’ s laboratory focused on revealing the earliest intergenerational transmission of mat...
