Overview

June Chan is a researcher affiliated with Cornell University in the United States. Their work primarily intersects the fields of neuroscience and medicine, with a focused specialization in cellular and molecular neuroscience as well as pharmacology.

The scientist's research topics encompass several key areas, including:

  • Cannabis and Cannabinoid Research
  • Neuroscience and Neuropharmacology Research
  • Neurotransmitter Receptor Influence on Behavior

June Chan has contributed to the scientific literature through publications in recognized venues. The frequent publication venues include:

  • IBRO Neuroscience Reports
  • Cerebral Cortex

Their recent papers highlight experimental studies related to the effects of cannabinoids on receptor function in the brain. These include:

  • "Adolescent administration of Δ9-THC decreases the expression and function of muscarinic-1 receptors in prelimbic prefrontal cortical neurons of adult male mice," published in 2021 in IBRO Neuroscience Reports
  • "Prefrontal cortical distribution of muscarinic M2 and cannabinoid-1 (CB1) receptors in adult male mice with or without chronic adolescent exposure to Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol," published in 2022 in Cerebral Cortex

Chan has collaborated frequently with several co-authors, reflecting a network of scientific partnerships. These include:

  • Miguel Garzón
  • Ken Mackie
  • Virginia M. Pickel
  • Gang Wang
  • Faye Bourie

The focus on muscarinic and cannabinoid receptors places June Chan's work within neuroscience and neuropharmacology research that explores neurotransmitter receptor function and behavioral modulation.
