Rodriguez Lab at Stanford University

Mission Statement

Our mission is to serve our patients with compassion, collaborate with interdisciplinary scientists and community partners, and lead innovative high-quality research studies that accelerate and transform treatments for severe mental illness. The Rodriguez Translational Therapeutics Lab seeks to translate our understanding of the brain bases of emotion and behavior to develop rapid-acting treatments for mental illness. We partner with collaborators at multiple points along the discovery and development pathway to discover new treatments across the lifespan. We are committed to educating the public about mental illness and clinical research.
