Research Trends: His publications (1990–2018) examine memory mechanisms in rats, emphasizing hippocampal and perirhinal cortex roles, hormonal influences (e.g., estradiol, oxytocin), and stress effects on behavior. Studies include novel object recognition, circadian rhythms, and neurodegenerative models.
Scientific Awards:
- Fellow of Concordia University's Science College
Teaching Activities: Dr. Mumby's courses bridge animal behavior, evolutionary theory, and neurobiology, reflecting his interdisciplinary research focus.
