Katarzyna Stachowicz

Dr. Katarzyna Stachowicz's research interests focus on the molecular mechanisms of depression, cognition and anxiety. Her doctoral dissertation at the Department of Neurobiology, Institute of Pharmacology, Polish Academy of Sciences, Krakow, Poland, focused on molecular mechanisms of anxiety involving mGluRs. Dr. was a postdoctoral fellow at the Center for Neuroscience Drug Discovery, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, TN, USA. Dr. is an assistant professor, his postdoctoral dissertation focused on COX-2/mGluRs interactions in depression. Dr. is also a pop scientist who seeks to combine neuroscience and physics to talk about the underlying molecular mechanisms in the brain. She has published more than 50 research articles in SCI journals and fourteen popular science articles.
