Allen Chen
Affiliate, Department Funds
Resident in Psychiatry and Behavioral SciencesBioAllen Chen is a physician-scientist and resident in the Stanford Psychiatry Research Track, mentored by Drs. Robert Malenka and Liqun Luo. His research investigates serotonergic circuit mechanisms underlying social behavior and how early life stress alters neuromodulator system development, with a focus on understanding the neurodevelopmental basis of adolescent-onset psychiatric vulnerability. He completed his MD-PhD at Stony Brook University with Dr. Qiaojie Xiong, where his thesis work characterized how nigrostriatal dopamine modulates auditory perception and fear learning. His long-term goal is to establish an independent research program studying how early experiences become biologically embedded in neuromodulatory circuits, integrating systems and molecular neuroscience with clinical training in child and adolescent psychiatry.

Lu Chen
Professor of Neurosurgery and of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWhat distinguishes us humans from other animals is our ability to undergo complex behavior. The synapses are the structural connection between neurons that mediates the communication between neurons, which underlies our various cognitive function. My research program aims to understand the cellular and molecular mechanisms that underlie synapse function during behavior in the developing and mature brain, and how synapse function is altered during mental retardation.
