Biography

Elizabeth Gould is the Dorman T. Warren Professor at Princeton University and a leading researcher in the field of Psychology. Her laboratory investigates structural plasticity in the adult mammalian brain, focusing on the role of environmental, hormonal, and neural stimuli that influence the number, shape, and size of neurons, astrocytes, and microglia. Her research endeavors aim to understand how changes in brain structure can impact cognition and anxiety regulation, as well as to identify factors that can enhance plasticity and cell survival in the developing adult mammalian brain. By elucidating these mechanisms, Gould's work contributes to a broader understanding of brain development and function, positioning her as a pivotal figure in neuroscience.
