Rebecca M. Calisi Rodriguez Biography

Rebecca M. Calisi Rodriguez is one of the most popular and richest Neuroendocrinologist who was born on September 13, 1979 in Dallas, Texas, United States.

After completing her Bachelors of Arts in 2001, Calisi returned to Texas and was hired by the Dallas Independent School District as an Elementary School Teacher and an English as a Second Language Instructor for kindergarten through the 4th grade. Calisi stayed in this role for one year before being recruited by the Dallas Zoo and Aquarium in 2002 to teach and develop curricula for grades K-12. While at the Dallas Zoo, Calisi was commissioned to paint a mural for the Dallas Zoo’s education center. During this time, Calisi spent many hours volunteering on various animal conservation projects. The biologists she worked with noted that she had a talent for research and encouraged her to pursue a graduate degree in the science. She earned a Masters in Biology at the University of Texas, Arlington. Her research project involved studying the mating habits and coloration of a species of spiny lizard called Sceloporus pyrocephalus in which the females are brightly colored and aggressive. Calisi uncovered what hormones were driving changes in female coloration and aggression. Calisi completed her Masters in 2006. This work was seen as very progressive, in that most studies of aggression and coloration in any animal had focused on males.

After finishing her graduate studies in 2010, Calisi conducted postdoctoral studies under the mentorship of Dr. John Wingfield, at UC Davis and Dr. Timothy Q. Gentner at UC San Diego. Calisi studied how hormonal fluctuations in adulthood affect learning. Calisi and her colleagues found that circulating estradiol (E2) levels in combination with changes in the photoperiod affect learning in different ways. Birds given high doses of E2 exhibited better accuracy in auditory tasks when photostimulated but worse accuracy when photosensitive. Funded by the National Science Foundation and well as the University of California President’s Postdoctoral Fellowship, Calisi continued to explore how neuroendocrine and molecular factors influence reproductive and sexual behaviors in birds as a postdoctoral researcher under the mentorship of Dr. Erica Bree Rosenblum and Dr. Lance Kriegsfeld from 2013 until 2014.
