THE MOORE LABORATORY

Brain Health Research Institute (BHRI) and Department of Biological Sciences at Kent State University

Welcome to the Moore Research Laboratory at Kent State University.

We are interested in understanding the neuronal networks regulating gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons, the final output cells in the brain controlling fertility. In particular, our work focuses on determining whether changes in the regulation of GnRH neurons by a population of cells that co-express the neuropeptides Kisspeptin, Neurokinin B and Dynorphin (KNDy neurons) underlies the development of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), the most prevalent form of anovulatory infertility worldwide.

More details about our research interests can be found here.

Our laboratory is located within the Brain Health Research Institute in the Integrated Sciences Building (ISB) at Kent State University.

We are currently recruiting graduate students and postdocs to join our team! Email Dr. Moore at [email protected] if interested.
