OLFACTORY AND NEUROENDOCRINE FUNCTIONS

我们正在进行一个神经生理学， 神经解剖学、内分泌学和生物化学研究 嗅觉辨别的感觉和激素基础 哺乳动物 研究的目标包括：（1）化学 信息素生物活性成分鉴定 分泌物，（2）研究的机制和神经通路， 这些物质影响神经内分泌和生殖 功能，和（3）表征的机制和 激素分泌的变化影响 生物相关刺激的神经处理。

We are conducting a coordinated program of neurophysiological, neuroanatomical, endocrinological and biochemical research on the sensory and hormonal basis of olfactory discrimination in mammals. The objectives of the research include (1) chemical identification of biologically active constituents in pheromonal secretions, (2) study of the mechanisms and neural pathways by which these substances affect neuroendocrine and reproductive functions, and (3) characterization of the mechanisms and pathways by which changes in hormonal secretion influence the neural processing of biologically relevant stimuli.
