Francis S Lee, a Professor of Psychiatry at Weill Cornell Medical College, holds concurrent appointments in Molecular Biology, Neuroscience, and Pharmacology. His research bridges neurotrophin signaling, synaptic plasticity, and psychiatric disorders with a focus on BDNF Val66Met polymorphism and endocannabinoid system interactions.
- Research Themes: Neural circuit development in anxiety, stress resilience mechanisms, neurovascular dysfunction in psychiatric conditions, and translational models of fear learning
- Grants: NIH-funded studies on B7-1/p75 receptor neurodegeneration and social behavior circuits; DoD-supported PTSD treatment trials
Recent publications highlight cross-species investigations into anxiety subtypes via digital health tools, neurovascular integrity in sepsis models, and developmental synaptic plasticity through BDNF-FAAH interactions. His work emphasizes developmental neuroscience applications to clinical psychiatry, particularly in youth mental health paradigms.
