Dr. TARA PERROT academic career is decorated with several reputed awards and funding. Dr. TARA PERROT research interests include Our research focuses on factors that influence development and maintenance of adaptive resilient responses to stressors. We have studied stress responding for many years from a variety of perspectives, including behavioural, hormonal and neural in both non-human animal models and humans. The factors we are most interested in that influence development of adult stress responding are those that occur during early life, such as prenatal stress and enriched postnatal environments. We are also interested in maintenance of a healthy stress response, which is influenced by factors such as age and sex. Future plans include examining the influence of factors such as exercise and diet and how they interact with early life factors to shape adaptive stress responding..
