Where Neurons meet Hormones and Behavior

At the Talbi Lab, we’re proud neuroendocrinology nerds

We investigate how the brain synchronizes reproductive function with metabolic status at the neuronal, hormonal and behavioral levels.

Our research bridges neuroscience, endocrinology, reproduction and metabolism to answer a fundamental question: How does the brain integrate metabolic signals to orchestrate reproduction?

By unraveling these intricate communication networks, we’re uncovering insights with profound implications for fertility, metabolic disorders, and human health.

The Talbi lab is built on core values:

  • We’re driven by a genuine love of science and the joy it brings. We celebrate small wins, geek out over unexpected findings, and hold onto the sense of wonder that drew us to science.

  • We invest in each other’s growth, creating space for everyone to explore their research interests, build on their unique strengths and develop as scientists and individuals.

  • We all make mistakes, that’s how we grow. Failed experiments teach us as much as successful ones. We troubleshoot together, learn from setbacks, and move forward stronger.

  • Diverse perspectives enrich our lab culture and make our science better and sharper. We cultivate a space where every voice matters and every experience adds value.
