 Andrew Gall joined the Department of Psychology faculty in fall 2015. He is a behavioral neuroscientist and teaches in the fields of psychology and neuroscience. His research interests primarily focus on understanding the neural mechanisms and functions of sleep and circadian rhythms.

Andrew loves educating students about psychology, inspiring students to become enthusiastic about neuroscience and researching the complex relationship between the brain and behavior. He is also thrilled to be a part of a growing neuroscience program at Hope and hopes to instill the love of science in all of his students.

AREAS OF INTEREST

Andrew specializes in behavioral neuroscience by studying the biological bases of behavior. His expertise is focused on understanding the influence of light on circadian rhythms, and he is especially interested in species-differences in the brain between animals that are diurnal (day-active) and those that are nocturnal (night-active).
