Monthly Seminar Series: Dr. Stephanie Correa – “Estrogen Signaling in the Hypothalamus Aligns Thermoregulation with Reproductive State”
BSRB Rm 483Join us for our October Seminar Session! The Correa Lab is investigating how fluctuating estrogen levels influence signaling pathways and neural activity within estrogen-sensitive regions of the hypothalamus. Their research proposes that estrogens simultaneously impact multiple brain regions and neural circuits to coordinate energy balance adjustments that meet the unique metabolic demands of various reproductive

Monthly Seminar Series: Dr. Chuchu Zhang – “Neural Mechanisms of Nausea”
BSRB 483Join us for our upcoming Seminar Session! Nausea is a protective but often debilitating sensation that limits the use of many important therapies, and current anti-nausea drugs are frequently ineffective because the underlying brain mechanisms are poorly understood. Dr. Zhang will discuss the identification of specific neuron circuits in the brain’s area postrema that drive
