Charles S . Bockman, PhD
Assistant Professor
Pharmacology & Neuroscience
Dr. Bockman’s laboratory focuses on the role of extrinsic stimuli in regulating sensitivity to drugs of abuse. We study the brain’s neuroplastic response to environmental enrichment in an effort to discover more efficacious treatments for drug addiction.
