- Catherine S. Woolley (born July 30, 1965) is an American neuroendocrinologist. Woolley holds the William Deering Chair in Biological Sciences in the Department of Neurobiology, Weinberg College of Arts & Sciences, at Northwestern University.She is also a member of the Women's Health Research Institute in the Feinberg School of Medicine at Northwestern University. Woolley studies cellular and molecular neuroscience in relation to the brain and behavior, particularly neuroendocrinology and the plasticity of neural circuits. She attempts to understand molecular mechanisms of estrogen and its interactions with the structure and function of synapses in the adult brain, and their behavioral consequences. She has been described as "a leading authority in a very exciting area of adult neuroplasticity".Her earliest work included a pioneering study demonstrating that estrogen caused structural changes to cells in the rat hippocampus. She has also shown that neuronal mechanisms in the rat brain differ in males and females. Her work has broad significance for drug development and women's health, and for the studies of epilepsy, anxiety and depression. (en)
