Summary
Luke Sjulson is an Associate Professor of Psychiatry and Neuroscience at Albert Einstein College of Medicine with 11 years of academic experience studying addiction, decision-making, and neurodevelopmental disorders. He leads an interdisciplinary lab that combines systems neurophysiology, computational approaches, optical imaging, and molecular biology to probe multi-region coordination across hippocampus, accumbens, and mPFC. His group pioneers methods that integrate in vivo imaging with post-mortem spatial transcriptomics, enabling cellular-resolution links between activity patterns and molecular identity. Trained in rigorous clinical and research programs (MD/PhD and postdocs in the Buzsáki and Fishell labs), he blends patient-centered psychiatric insight with cutting-edge systems neuroscience. Based in New York City, he is notable for translating technical innovations into experiments that address real-world questions about behavior and brain circuit dysfunction.
