Welcome to Lee lab!  We are located at the University of Texas at Austin and are affiliated with the department of Psychology and the Institute for Neuroscience.

    Our broad research interest is in understanding neural mechanisms of cognitive functions.  We are currently studying the role of the amygdala-dopamine system in learning and memory.  We believe that our research is important not only for understanding the basic brain-behavior relationships, but also for understanding and treating cognitive problems associated with neurological disorders.

      We hope that you will learn more about what we do through our site.  Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or comments.
