Virtual-in person Neuroseminar: "Cannabinoids, the amygdala and stress”

Tier II Canada Research Chair on Neurobiology of Stress

Main research interests:
Dr. Hill's research focuses on how cannabinoids regulate homeostatic processes in the brain, such as stress responses, affective behavior, feeding and metabolism. Specifically, his lab work focuses on: i) the identification of the neural circuits and cell types through which endocannabinoid function is regulated by stress to modulate neural activity, behavioural processes and neuroendocrine function; ii) the identification of molecular pathways by which both endogenous and exogenous cannabinoids impact feeding and metabolic processes; iii) understanding the impact of exposure to cannabis at different developmental ages, such as in utero or adolescence, on behavioral trajectories into adulthood.
