DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Garret Stuber\nAbstract: In order to survive and effec
 tively navigate an ever-changing and unpredictable environment\, organisms
  must readily adapt their behavior to seek out needed resources\, while si
 multaneously avoiding life-threatening situations. These opposing processe
 s are controlled by neural circuitry that is readily engaged by both envir
 onmental and physiological factors to promote behavioral output. The work 
 of my lab studies the precise neural circuits that control both reward and
  aversive-related behavioral responses. By utilizing optogenetic and other
  circuit mapping tools\, we aim to delineate the precise functional synapt
 ic connections between molecularly distinct neuronal populations that are 
 critical for the generation of these critical behavioral states. A holisti
 c understanding of the interconnected neural circuit elements that mediate
  diverse motivational behaviors will likely provide important insight into
  a variety of complex neurological and neuropsychiatric illnesses such as 
 drug and alcohol addiction\, anxiety\, depression\, and eating disorders.
