Track: Neuropharmacology and Neuroendocrinology
The Neuropharmacology and Neuroendocrinology session explores the intricate interactions between pharmacological agents, the nervous system, and endocrine systems. This session aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of how drugs affect the brain and how hormonal changes influence neurological functions and mental health.
Neuropharmacology focuses on the study of how drugs interact with the nervous system to modify its function. This includes examining the mechanisms of action of various pharmacological agents, their effects on neurotransmitter systems, and their therapeutic potential in treating neurological and psychiatric disorders. Participants will gain insights into cutting-edge research on drug development and its implications for clinical practice.
Neuroendocrinology, on the other hand, investigates the relationship between the endocrine system and brain function. This includes studying how hormones influence cognitive processes, emotional regulation, and overall mental health. The session will cover topics such as the impact of stress hormones on brain function, hormonal imbalances in psychiatric conditions, and the role of endocrine disruptors in neurodevelopmental disorders.
Through interactive discussions, case studies, and recent research findings, attendees will deepen their understanding of these dynamic fields. The session will also highlight recent advancements and future directions in neuropharmacology and neuroendocrinology, offering participants valuable perspectives on the latest trends and emerging therapies.
Join us to engage with leading experts, participate in thought-provoking discussions, and explore the latest innovations in neuropharmacology and neuroendocrinology. This session promises to be a vital part of the conference, bridging the gap between drug action, hormonal regulation, and mental health.
