Neuroendocrinology

This nationally recognized group of faculty has formed a Center for Neuroendocrine Studies, which emphasizes interdisciplinary and collaborative studies on the interactions between hormones, brain function, and behavior. Current research interests include hormones and neuronal development, regulation of neuroendocrine cells and behavior, circadian rhythms, environmental endocrine disruptors, stress, and neuronal integration of experiential, metabolic, and hormonal signals. There is particular emphasis on reproductive neuroendocrinology and the role of gonadal steroids in ovulation and female mating behavior and sexual differentiation

 

Molecular and Cellular Neuroscience

Faculty members within this area apply state-of-the-art molecular and genetic techniques to the analysis of neuronal function and development in a variety of model systems. Particularly noteworthy is a strong and highly interactive group using zebrafish as a model organism to investigate the molecular mechanisms of neural development and organization. Another major area of interest involves ...

The University of Houston neuroscience programs include the Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience program in the Department of Psychology and various centers including Center for Neuro-Engineering & Cognitive Science and the Center for Neuromotor, Biomechanics Research (CNBR). and the Brain-Machine Interface Systems Lab.
