"Effects of aromatase inhibition on hippocampal cellular excitability in an Alzheimer's disease mouse model"
Dr. Alexander French (Christian-Hinman Lab)
Our laboratory explores research questions at the intersection of neuroscience, physiology, and endocrinology.  We are particularly interested in the neural mechanisms linking epilepsy and comorbid reproductive endocrine disorders.

"The effect of diet on the reemergence from breast cancer dormancy"
Claire Schane (E. Nelson Lab)
Our lab is focused on determining how endocrine and metabolic factors associated with obesity and hypercholesterolemia influence breast and ovarian cancer progression. There is a strong focus on the interface between cholesterol homeostasis and the immune system.
