Millions suffer from chronic disorders spanning the medical spectrum, from digestive to cardiovascular diseases. With the support of the Gerald Oppenheimer Family Foundation, investigators at the new Gail and Gerald Oppenheimer Family Center for Neurobiology of Stress at UCLA (formerly the UCLA Center for Neurobiology of Stress) will study brain-body interactions in chronic, stress-sensitive disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome, interstitial cystitis and obesity.
