Dr. Thomas R. Insel
Biography & Research Background
Thomas R. Insel, MD, conducted seminal research beginning in the late 1980s establishing oxytocin's role in social cognition. His group demonstrated that oxytocin plays a critical role in the monogamous partner preferences of prairie voles compared to montane voles, showing that oxytocin receptor distribution in specific brain regions is necessary for social attachment. Key publications: 'Oxytocin is required for nursing but is not essential for parturition or reproductive behavior' (1996) and 'Is social attachment an addictive disorder?' (2003). Thomas R. Insel is being referenced as one of the pioneering scientists involved in oxytocin research.
