Researcher, Douglas Research Centre
Member, McGill Group for Suicide Studies
Assistant Professor, Department of Psychiatry, McGill University
Member, Quebec Network for Suicide, Mood Disorders, and Related Disorders (RQSHA)
Nom du laboratoire: Neuromolecular and brain cell specific underpinnings of mood disorders
Groupe thématique: Stress, anxiété, dépression et suicideDivision: Neuroscience humaine
Expertise: Single-cell transcriptomic of human brain nuclei
Different research themes to be explored in her laboratory are:
- Cell-specific underpinnings of sexual dimorphism in depression
- Extracellular vesicle mediation of brain communication and plasticity
- Cell-specific response to pharmacological treatment in depression
Corina Nagy, PhD, joined the Douglas Institute and the McGill Group for Suicide Studies in 2020. As an early career investigator, she is looking to push the limits of modern technology and explore the brain at an unprecedented resolution, examining the contribution of each brain cell to the pathological state with a focus on major depression.
