Types
of Research Supported by BBRB
The BBRB supports a broad spectrum
of Basic and Biobehavioral Research. Examples of the types of research that
we support include the following:
- Development and testing
of models and theories of health-related behavior change
- Psychoneuroimmunology research
that examines how stress and psychosocial influences on behavior, the
central nervous system, the immune system, and CNS-immune system interactions
impact disease progression and remission
- Psychophysiological and
genetic processes linking psychiatric co-morbidity and/or personality
with cancer and/or cancer-related health behaviors
- Psychosocial and behavioral
consequences of cancer risk assessment, including the impact of genetic
testing on the individual and the family
- Cognitive and emotional
processes underlying medical decision-making in cancer screening, prevention,
and treatment
- Behavioral genetics (e.g.,
genetic determinants of individual differences in the reinforcing effects
of smoking, eating, and physical activity)
