Susanne Ahmari

Dr. Susanne Ahmari is assistant professor of Psychiatry at University of Pittsburgh, and Director of the Translational OCD Laboratory. Dr. Ahmari’s research program integrates basic neuroscience approaches and cutting-edge technology in animal models with clinical and post-mortem studies of OCD patients. Her ultimate goal is to identify molecular, cellular, and circuit-level changes that underlie the onset and persistence of abnormal repetitive and compulsive behaviors, and use this information to develop neuroscientifically-based treatments for OCD and other related disorders.
