We are pleased to announce that Professor Anthony Grace will be presenting his work on how pre-and periadolescent stress impacts risk for developing schizophrenia-like or depression-like symptoms in the adult rat.

His talk will encompass circuit, physiological, and behavioral analyses of alterations that occur at different early stages, and how females show dramatic differences in susceptibility compared to males.
