Research

TAMIN faculty conduct research across a broad range of biological systems and at multiple levels of analysis.  Although the scientific questions and research approaches among the faculty are diverse, there are five central themes that define our areas of research excellence:

Women’s Health – Neuroendocrinology and sex differences

Environmental Impact – Neurotoxicology, nutrition, and neural development

Biological Rhythms – Circadian neurobiology and biological clocks

Neuroplasticity, Degeneration, Trauma and Recovery – Neuroplasticity, pain and clinical neuroscience

Learning, Memory and Cognition – Behavioral and cognitive neuroscience

Motivated Behavior – Behavioral and affective neuroscience, behavioral genetics
