John Cabot received a BEA in Electrical Engineering and Business Administration in 1968 from the University of Delaware.  In 1976 he completed a Ph.D. in Physiology from the University of Virginia School of Medicine and from 1976-1978 he was an Alfred P. Sloan Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow in Neuroscience at the University of Virginia School of Medicine.  Professor Cabot joined the faculty of the Department of Neurobiology and Behavior at SBU in 1979 as an Assistant Professor and was promoted to Associate Professor with tenure in 1984. In 1993 Professor Cabot was promoted to Full Professor of Neurobiology and Behavior.  Professor Cabot’s research program from 1979-2002 focused on the structural and neurochemical interface between central nervous system function and the regulation of peripheral cardiovascular function.  The research efforts were supported, in part, by an Established Investigatorship from the American Heart Association, and by a Merit Award from 1992-2002 from the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute.  Professor Cabot currently is devoting 100% of his efforts toward teaching Cell and Organ Systems Physiology to undergraduate students.
