Natasha Rajah's research team uses brain imaging to examine the neural substrates of learning and memory in healthy young adults.  

The laboratory’s focus is on the neurons that use glutamate, an excitatory neurotransmitter that is key to the functioning of the central nervous system.

Naguib Mechawar identifies the neurochemical and neuroanatomical properties of major depression and suicidal behaviors in the brain.

Natasha Rajah, nvestigates how memory retrieval works in healthy young adults, and how it is affected by aging.

"Bilingual" neurons may reveal the secrets of brain disease

For Easter season, researchers at the Douglas Mental Health University Institute have some advice: drink red wine (with moderation), black or green tea and eat chocolate. Their findings summarized in the June 2007 Neurochemical Research, describe

Researchers at the Douglas redefine the role of a region of the brain associated with organizing memory.
