Bio
Martin Paulus has published over 300 scientific papers and has been funded continuously by federal grants since 1997. Among his current projects, he is a member of the NIMH’s Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) study, which is closely following some 11,000 youths from age 9–10 to adulthood to determine how the brain changes during the course of adolescence and how these changes put adolescents at risk for substance use. The Paulus lab is also engaged in several studies involving the impact of cannabis upon the brain, as well as research exploring the possible utility of pharmacological modifiers of the body’s own cannabinoid system to treat anxiety and depression.

We Are

Our
Impact
Beginning in 1987, the Brain & Behavior Research Foundation was providing seed money to neuroscientists to invest in “out of the box” research that the government and other sources were unwilling to fund.
