    \n\n              \n\n\nAbstract: The research history of adult mammali
 an neurogenesis is a controversial one. Once largely ignored by the scient
 ific community\, current thinking accepts that new neurons are produced in
  restricted regions of the adult brain\, including the hippocampus. Using 
 mouse and cell culture models\, my research addresses the application of a
 dult hippocampal neurogenesis and how dysregulation of this dynamic proces
 s may contribute to or exacerbate neuropsychiatric disorders characterized
  by abnormal neurogenesis. In this presentation\, I will discuss the role 
 of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) in adult neurogenesis and how its e
 ndogenous functions related to neurogenesis are disrupted following exposu
 re to environmental chemicals. I will also propose future directions to ad
 dress the underlying mechanisms in which environmental chemicals induce ne
 urotoxicity via the AhR and discuss strategies that may protect the adult 
 hippocampus from adverse environmental exposures. These research objective
 s will contribute to our understanding of the cellular and molecular mecha
 nisms of adult learning\, memory\, and behavior and the manner in which th
 ese mechanisms may be perturbed by environmental chemicals.
