Overview

W. Todd Maddox is affiliated with The University of Texas at Austin in the United States. Their research spans multiple fields related to behavioral neuroscience, psychology, and coastal studies, with notable contributions in infant health and development, neuroendocrine regulation, and coastal and marine dynamics.

Their recent publications include work focused on both biological and environmental sciences:

  • Spontaneous Ultrasonic Vocalization Transmission in Adult, Male Long-Evans Rats Is Age-Dependent and Sensitive to EtOH Modulation (2020, Brain Sciences)
  • Acoustilytix™: A Web-Based Automated Ultrasonic Vocalization Scoring Platform (2021, Brain Sciences)
  • A Case Study of Post-Industrial Shoreline Recovery on Canada's Pacific Coast (2024, Journal of Coastal Research)
  • A Review of Geomorphological Salt Marsh Research Methodologies (2024, Journal of Coastal Research)

Their work addresses a range of topics including:

  • Infant Health and Development
  • Neuroendocrine Regulation and Behavior
  • Stress Responses and Cortisol
  • Language Development and Disorders
  • Voice and Speech Disorders
  • Coastal and Marine Dynamics
  • Maritime and Coastal Archaeology

Maddox's research fields include pharmacy, social psychology, behavioral neuroscience, developmental and educational psychology, and physiology. This interdisciplinary approach manifests in their diverse publication venues, with two main areas of focus:
