David I. Mostofsky-Brain, Behavior and Cognition Program Faculty

  Ph.D., Boston University

 
 

Professor

I am interested in various topics in behavioral medicine, that can be studied in either humans or animals, within a general framework of operant conditioning, psychoimmunology, and fatty acid biochemistry. Currently active research is concentrated on (1) the role of restraint induced stress on inflammatory markers and its modification by fatty acid supplementation, and (2) supplementation of immune enhanced diet for Alzheimer patients.
