معرفی
Richard E. Hartman is a Professor of Psychology at Loma Linda University, leading the Hartman Behavioral Neuroscience Lab. His work focuses on promoting healthy brain aging and enhancing resilience against neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s, stroke, and traumatic brain injury. Key research areas include neuroprotective dietary compounds, stem cell therapy biomarkers, and mechanisms of brain injury recovery.
He earned his PhD in Behavior, Brain, and Cognition from Washington University, St. Louis (2001). His lab’s research spans three interconnected domains: neurodegeneration modeling, brain resilience enhancement, and phytochemical effects on neural health. He collaborates with organizations like the Society for Neuroscience and the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
Recent studies explore ketamine’s role in PTSD treatment (2024), metabolic effects of channel blockers (2023), and dietary interventions for autism (2020). His community engagement includes educational outreach on brain health in schools since 2006. Presentations at conferences like WPA (2023) highlight work on stress, radiation effects, and mindfulness practices.
