Project Title Project Title	Whole Brain Mapping of the Effects of Intranasal Oxytocin in CNTNAP2 KO Mouse Model of Autism
Principal Investigator Principal Investigator	Kim, Yongsoo
Description Description	Yongsoo Kim, Ph.D., Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, will explore aspects of a finding that intranasal oxytocin can improve social behavior in ASD. The study seeks to determine the associated physiological mechanisms in an animal model and to identify what brain regions respond to the treatment and how brain activity is altered to lead to improvement in social behavior.
