Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience of Childhood Brain Disorders

​Mission: The Huang lab aims to understand the cellular and molecular pathogenic mechanisms of autism, epilepsy, and neuropsychiatric disorders using innovative preclinical models. The ultimate goal is to translate discoveries to personalized therapeutic solutions.

Tools: We leverage CRISPR techniques, novel models of human diseases (induced pluripotent stem cell and mouse models), biochemistry, mouse behavioural assays, patch-clamp electrophysiology, single-cell and multiomic approaches, whole brain clearing and imaging, and engineering of novel gene and pharmacological therapies to tackle childhood neuropsychiatric disorders​
