Mirnics Laboratory

We are a productive, NIH-funded laboratory at the Department of Psychiatry and Kennedy Center for Human Development at Vanderbilt University. We believe that the successful researcher should work hard, be smart, plan ahead, be honest, play by the rules, respect co-workers and have a happy and fulfilling private life outside the work environment.
