Dr. Clare Mathes is chair of the neuroscience department at 澳门心水论坛. She is a behavioral pharmacologist whose research focuses on the neurochemistry involved in detecting and enjoying the taste of foods and fluids and how behaviors guided by taste impact eating and body weight status. Mathes uses animal models, primarily rats, to assess these behaviors. Her area of expertise centers around behavior analysis. She also performs stereotaxic, gut, oral and vascular surgery and dabbles in immunohistochemistry.

Currently, her lab is assessing the role of hindbrain dopamine D2 receptors on taste-guided behavior. Other areas of interest include how sex, age and body weight status impact behaviors associated with taste.
