The research in the Department of Neurobiology is aligned with three issues of pressing concern to the health and well-being of the citizens of Baltimore and Maryland: Addiction, Pain, and Aging. We work with colleagues in UMSOM and around the world to create collaborative research, training, and outreach programs in these areas.

Our faculty and trainees are affiliated with the University of Maryland - Medicine Institute for Neuroscience Discovery (UM-MIND), Graduate Program in Life Sciences (GPILS), and Kahlert Institute for Addiction Medicine.
