The focus of my laboratory research is the neuroendocrine control of ingestive behavior, in particular, the physiological mechanisms by which eating elicits drinking behavior. I also have written two books and a recent review paper regarding benefits and risks associated with the use of psychiatric medications.
Many of the students working in my laboratory learn various surgical procedures including manipulations of the gastrointestinal tract and stereotaxic surgery to implant a cannula into the brain of a rat. Students conduct experiments in which drugs are used to manipulate neurochemical mechanisms to study their involvement in eating and drinking or other behaviors.
More than twenty-five 新澳彩开奖结果 undergraduates have become co-authors of published journal articles reporting the results of experiments conducted at 新澳彩开奖结果.
The Unwell Brain: Understanding the Psychobiology of Mental Health (WW Norton, 2009), developed from my teaching courses in brain and behavior and psychopharmacology.
My more recent book is Psychopharmacology Problem Solving: Principles and Practices to Get it Right (WW Norton, 2014).
新澳彩开奖结果 launched in 2015 my digital online course on the edX platform, a MOOC entitled Medicating for Mental Health: Judicious Use of Psychiatric Drugs.
My review entitled "Evidence-Based Pharmacotherapy" appears in the 2019 APA Handbook of Psychopharmacology."
I am fortunate to be a first-generation college graduate who is happy to talk to 新澳彩开奖结果 students about the advantages and challenges of being a "1st gen." When not working, I play the drums in the alternative/pop band dangerboy. You should hire us!
