Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Michael D. Berquist's research program investigates the neurobiological and pharmacological underpinnings of substance use disorders and related conditions. His work frequently utilizes animal models, particularly rats and mice, to examine the effects of various drugs, including stimulants like methamphetamine, and central nervous system depressants such as ethanol and opioids.

Berquist's publications explore topics ranging from the impact of environmental factors like limited bedding on ethanol consumption to the neuroinflammatory consequences of chronic ethanol administration. He also studies the interaction of different drug compounds, such as buprenorphine and norbuprenorphine, and investigates the potential therapeutic applications of monoclonal antibodies for treating methamphetamine use. His collaborations include work with Lisa K. Brents, Brian J. Parks, and Julia Tobacyk at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, with whom he has co-authored multiple publications.
