Our lab focuses on social behaviors such as recognition, parenting, aggression and mating. We are interested in examining variability in circuit functions and behaviors that develop throughout an animal’s lifespan.

The Bergan lab employs many techniques, but focuses mainly on neuroanatomical experiments, electrophysiology and behavioral assays.
