    Defining New Fields: Social Neuroendocrinology

    Sari鈥� Michelle 鈥痸an 鈥疉nders is a leader in feminist bioscience and sex research. Her award-winning research spans across natural, social and health sciences, to the arts,聽and humanities. The research contributes to our understandings of sexual phenomena like orgasm, fantasy, desire, and pornography 鈥� as well as larger related constructs like gender and sexual diversity.

    Having led and established the new field of 鈥渟ocial neuroendocrinology,鈥� van Anders is asking new groundbreaking questions. For example, van Anders is researching how gendered experiences modulate testosterone, how testosterone responds when a person marginalizes others, and why certain sexual phenomena change a person鈥檚 hormones and immunity.

    With the creation of sexual configurations theory, van Anders鈥� work will next explore how the experiences of those from sexual and gender minorities and majorities can better be thought about and understood 鈥� in science, and in our lives.
