School of Neuroscience Innovators Seminar Series

Troy Roepke, Ph. D., Department of Animal Sciences, Rutgers University

  • Public Neuroscience Seminar
  • Fralin Auditorium
  • Wednesday, Sept. 18, 2019
  • 11:00 AM – 12:00pm

Dr. Roepke’s research examines the influence of estrogens on physiology, behavior, and brain functions and how this intersects with developmental and adult exposures to endocrine disrupting compounds. He will present work on how adult exposures to flame-retardants affect energy balance, gene expression, neuronal activity, and hormone production. These findings have implications for the etiology of metabolic disorders in children and adults.
