Overview

James P. Herman is affiliated with the University of Cincinnati in the United States. Their research primarily focuses on the field of Neuroscience, with a concentration in Behavioral Neuroscience, Social Psychology, Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience, Molecular Biology, and Cognitive Neuroscience.

The scientist's main topics of study include Stress Responses and Cortisol, Neuroendocrine Regulation and Behavior, Tryptophan and Brain Disorders, Neuroscience and Neuropharmacology Research, Memory and Neural Mechanisms, Neuroinflammation and Neurodegeneration Mechanisms, and Hormonal Regulation and Hypertension.

James P. Herman has contributed to several recent papers, notable among them are:

  • Brain mechanisms of HPA axis regulation: neurocircuitry and feedback in context Richard Kvetnansky lecture (2020) published in Stress
  • The neuroendocrinology of stress: Glucocorticoid signaling mechanisms (2021) published in Psychoneuroendocrinology

Other frequently cited works associated with their research circle include studies on stress impact on corticolimbic circuits and the neural and behavioral consequences of chronic stress, published in venues such as Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior, Biological Psychiatry, and Neurobiology of Stress.

Collaborations with fellow researchers have been a significant aspect of their career. Frequent co-authors include Nawshaba Nawreen, Marissa A. Smail, Evelin M. Cotella, Rachel D. Moloney, and Rammohan Shukla.

The scientist has published multiple articles in prominent journals. Key publication venues for James P. Herman's work comprise bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), Stress, Psychoneuroendocrinology, Molecular Psychiatry, and Biological Psychiatry.
