Social Psychoneuroendocrinology (SPEL) Lab
at the University of Oregon
The SPEL lab studies interactions between hormones, the environment, and human social behavior with an emphasis on status hierarchies, emotion regulation/stress, and decision-making. We integrate methods and approaches from the psychological sciences with neuroscience methods (hormone measurement and administration, neuroimaging, cardiovascular responses, genotyping) to understand these processes.
