Gregory Mehta

With a PhD in neuroscience and an undergraduate BSc in pharmacology, Gregory Mehta is a laboratory researcher in a university psychiatry department in Whistler, British Columbia. His experimental work examines how psychoactive compounds influence neural circuitry and alter behavioural responses, relying primarily on rodent models of psychiatric illness. Mehta oversees testing protocols that assess changes in locomotion, anxiety-like responses, and cognitive flexibility following acute and chronic drug administration. He collaborates with clinical faculty to evaluate potential therapeutic compounds targeting refractory mood disorders before they advance to human trials.
