Prof. Dr. Lee Wei Lim

Dr. Lim’s research is focused on basic and translational neurosciences looking at existing neuromodulatory and neuropharmacological treatments for neurodegenerative and psychiatric disorders. More specifically, his interests are directed toward understanding the neural basis of mood and anxiety disorders, as well as neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Alzheimer’s disease and other aging-related cognitive disorders. His research encompasses different interrelated methodologies, including cellular and molecular techniques, electrophysiology, and behavioral and neurochemical methods, which together provide a multidisciplinary approach to understanding how neurostimulation interfaces with brain networks via controlling neuronal activity and the microcellular environment.
