Research in neuroscience, natural treatments, and more
Dr. Daniel A. Monti’s extensive research experience has focused on neuroscience, brain effects of mind-body interventions, brain mechanisms of healing and recovery, and testing natural molecules for therapeutic efficacy in nervous system diseases and cancer. As both a clinical physician and researcher, he has dozens of scholarly publications and has been a peer reviewer for numerous medical journals and study sections at the National Institutes of Health and Department of Defense. Dr. Monti is also the recipient of several federally-funded and private research grants.
