About Pascal

Professor Pascal Carrive is a professor in the School of Biomedical Sciences, Faculty of Medicine & Health, at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in Sydney. He obtained his PhD from the University of Sydney in 1989. Carrive has been affiliated with UNSW since at least 1999, serving as Associate Professor until 2023 before his promotion to Professor. As the leader of the Carrive Group (Brain, Blood Pressure and Stress laboratory), he is a neuroscientist whose research centers on the organization of brain networks that control hyperarousal and the accompanying autonomic and behavioral responses to emotional stressors such as anxiety and fear. His work particularly emphasizes cardiovascular and thermogenic responses to stress, conducted in conscious rats and mice using a combination of anatomical, physiological, and behavioral methodologies. Broad research areas encompass neuroscience, cardiovascular disease, and pharmacology, with specific keywords including central control of cardiovascular function, anxiety disorders, autonomic nervous system, limbic system, and brain anatomy.
