Welcome to Nutritional Neuroscience Lab

Dr. Lee’s laboratory investigates the neurobiological mechanisms underlying neuropsychiatric disorders, including depression, anxiety, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and various forms of addiction. To elucidate these mechanisms, the lab employs an integrative approach combining behavioral paradigms, molecular analyses, and electrophysiological recordings. Ongoing studies also focus on identifying natural products and bioactive compounds that can restore neural homeostasis. Ultimately, the laboratory aims to develop novel therapeutic strategies to normalize brain dysfunction and promote mental health.

We warmly welcome students who are passionate about nutritional neuroscience and eager to explore how diet influences brain and mental health. If you are curious about this exciting field and would like to gain hands-on research experience, please don’t hesitate to email us or visit our lab. We look forward to meeting and working with motivated students!
