Jonathan P. Godbout studies how the brain's immune system, particularly cells called microglia, responds to injury, stress, and aging, and how this contributes to problems like cognitive decline, sleep disruption, and mood-related changes. Much of his work focuses on traumatic brain injury and chronic stress models in rodents, examining how inflammatory signaling in the brain affects neurons, memory, and behavior. This research aims to understand mechanisms that could inform future treatments for neuroinflammatory and stress-related brain conditions.
Publication output has been variable but generally active over the past decade, with a notable surge in 2023 followed by continued steady output in 2024-2025.
