Dr. Bruce Hammock

1947 - 2026

In loving memory of Dr. Bruce Hammock, whose mentorship and vision continue to guide the lab's work.

Welcome to the Hammock Lab

The biochemical basis of human and environment interactions has been the long term theme of research and training in the Hammock Laboratory. Led by Dr. Bruce Hammock, a member of the National Academy of Science and National Academy of Invention, our team of over 40 scientists and students employ a multidisciplinary, integrated approach to research that delves into basic questions of biology and biochemistry that have practical implications for improving both human and environmental health.

*Our lab’s research continues to honor Bruce’s life work.

Alzheimer Disease (AD) & Parkinson Disease (PD) are distinct but related progressive neurodegenerative diseases, yielding debilitating disorders impacting both patients and loved ones. We previously showed in animal models of these diseases that sEH inhibition could reduce neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration.
