March of Dimes High School Science Week Keynote: Salk Professor Dr. Kay Tye

March of Dimes High School Science Week closed with a keynote by Salk Professor Dr. Kay Tye.
The ability to respond to environmental stimuli, such as avoiding a predator or approaching a food source, with appropriate choices is critical for survival. Kay Tye’s lab uses a multidisciplinary approach to understand the neural-circuit basis of emotion that leads to motivated behaviors such as social interaction, reward-seeking and avoidance. The findings may help to inform treatments for a multitude of neuropsychiatric conditions such as anxiety, depression, addiction and impairments to social behavior.
