Focus areas
The focus of our research is on the analysis of the functional connections between the nervous system, the hormonal system, and the immune system. We study the effects of behavior on the functions of the immune system and which psychological and biochemical mechanisms mediate them. We analyze the role of these behavioral effects on maintaining good health and on the development and progress of diseases.
