1R01DA039168-A1 (PI: Bryant) $3,026,929 04/01/2015-03/31/2020
NIH/NIDA: Bridging Genetic variation with Behavior: Molecular and Functional Mechanisms of Quantitative Trait Gene Regulation of the Stimulant and Addictive Properties of Methamphetamine in Mice

Use TALENs and CRISPR/Cas9 to make knockout and knockin mice carrying Hnrnph1 and Rufy1 to identify the quantitative trait gene influencing sensitivity to methamphetamine behaviors and use transcriptome analysis to identify the molecular mechanisms.

NIH/NIDA: Genetic Basis of Opioid Reward and Aversion in Mice

Use QTL, transcriptome, and gene targeting approaches to identify the genetic basis and molecular mechanisms of the motivational properties of opioids in mice.
