The Kaeser Lab, part of the Department of Neurobiology at Harvard Medical School, focuses on the mechanisms of synaptic transmission and neuromodulation. The laboratory conducts in-depth research concerning the assembly and function of release apparatus at synapses, as well as integrating modulatory transmission systems involving neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin, norepinephrine, acetylcholine, and neuropeptides. Utilizing a broad range of experimental methodologies, the group aims to dissect the roles and mechanisms underlying transmission systems within neural circuits. The lab cultivates a collaborative and visionary research environment, fostering scientific excellence among its researchers who share a passion for experimental science. Through investigation, they aim to deepen the understanding of how synaptic information processing is modulated, striving to elucidate complex neurobiological processes.
