Overview

Mario Engelmann is affiliated with Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg in Germany. Their research primarily focuses on neuroscience, with particular attention to neuroendocrine regulation and behavior, stress responses and cortisol, circadian rhythm and melatonin, as well as memory and neural mechanisms.

Their main fields of study are Neuroscience, with subfields including Social Psychology, Behavioral Neuroscience, Endocrine and Autonomic Systems, Cognitive Neuroscience, and Molecular Biology. Engelmann's work spans topics such as neuroendocrine regulation and behavior, stress responses and cortisol, circadian rhythm and melatonin, memory and neural mechanisms, receptor mechanisms and signaling, neuroscience and neuropharmacology research, and marine biology and ecology research.

Among their recent publications are the following papers:

  • Vasopressin and post-traumatic stress disorder, 2020, published in Stress
  • The Novel Analogue of Modafinil CE-158 Protects Social Memory against Interference and Triggers the Release of Dopamine in the Nucleus Accumbens of Mice, 2022, published in Biomolecules
  • Rescue of Vasopressin Synthesis in Magnocellular Neurons of the Supraoptic Nucleus Normalises Acute Stress-Induced Adrenocorticotropin Secretion and Unmasks an Effect on Social Behaviour in Male Vasopressin-Deficient Brattleboro Rats, 2022, published in International Journal of Molecular Sciences
  • First record of Chirocephalus carnuntanus (Brauer, 1877) (Branchiopoda, Anostraca) from Germany, 2025, published in Crustaceana

Their frequent co-authors include:

  • Bibiána Török
  • Dóra Zelena
  • Eszter Sipos
