Janis L. Anderson is an Adjunct Lecturer III at the University of New Mexico's Department of Psychology. She earned her Ph.D. from Vanderbilt University in 1983. Her research focuses on chronobiological and immunological aspects of mood disorders, with specialized interests in seasonal affective disorder (SAD), light therapy mechanisms, and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis dysregulation.
Research Focus: Dr. Anderson investigates the pathophysiology of mood disorders through multiple lenses:
- Mechanisms of light therapy efficacy for seasonal depression
- Circadian rhythm disruptions in psychiatric conditions
- Immune system biomarkers in mood disorders
- Comorbid medical and psychiatric conditions in SAD
- Neuroendocrine dysfunction in affective disorders
Her publications demonstrate consistent focus on chronobiology-neuroimmunology intersections, particularly examining leukocyte activity rhythms and cerebral blood flow responses to light therapy.
