Shlomo Wagner is a faculty member in the Sagol department of Neurobiology and the head of the Laboratory for Neurobiology of Social Behavior, at the University of Haifa. He investigates behavioral, neuronal and molecular processes involved in social behavior and memory in animal models. In addition, he explore brain mechanisms, which are involved in autism spectrum disorder (ASD), the prevalence of which has sharply increased over the past decades. To that end, is using various animal models of syndromic ASD to reveal modified brain activity leading to impairments in social behavior, such as those found in individuals diagnosed with ASD.
