Research interests

  • Neuroendocrine and metabolic control of reproduction
  • Pubertal development and brain plasticity
  • Women’s health and reproductive aging

Dr. Talbi’s research aims to understand how sex hormones and sex differences shape brain function and regulate physiological balance. Specifically, her work investigates how disruptions in energy balance, from undernutrition to obesity, impair reproductive function, and how reproductive hormones, in turn, influence metabolic homeostasis. Moreover, her research is motivated by advancing women’s health through the identification of brain pathways linking reproductive dysfunction with metabolic and hormonal disturbances, and the consequences of hormonal imbalance and endocrine decline across the lifespan.
