Research: genetics of opioid use disorder
Research Summary: Dr. Alannah McEvoy is currently a postdoctoral fellow within the SAMAAN lab. Her current research focuses on conducting genome-wide association studies and polygenic risk scores within the opioid use disorder population.
Faculty of Social Sciences
Research: Environmental and Ecological Physiology: Focus on energy metabolism and oxygen limitation
Research Summary: I am interested in the physiological mechanisms enabling organismal performance and survival in challenging environments. As humans, our bodies must experience and maintain a relatively narrow range of conditions to function well, and even small, brief deviations from these conditions can have devastating consequences. In contrast, many organisms thrive in environments which vary in ways that would kill a human in minutes. These organisms offer insight into solutions biological systems use to overcome a broad range of challenges to performance and survival. The lessons we learn from comparative investigations can inform efforts to solve problems as diverse as human pathologies or species persistence in the face of climate change.
