The Pignatelli lab is located on the 9th floor of the Neuroscience research building at the Washington University School of Medicine. The lab space consists of ~1,000 square feet, equipped with state-of-the-art computers, as well as a wet lab for solutions, brain slice, stereotaxic surgery, histology, optical fiber, electrode preparation and molecular biology.

While we utilize diverse classical and cutting-edge technical approaches, we are carrying out a hypothesis-driven research with the goal of providing a mechanistic understanding of the fundamental biological questions that we are addressing. Our most commonly used approaches are outlined below.
