She has published more than 250 scientific articles and has lectured worldwide on pharmacology, neuroanatomy, and her own leading-edge research on emotions and the bodymind connection.
Dr. Pert’s recent appearance in the film What the Bleep Do We Know?! and her 1997 best-selling book Molecules of Emotion: The Science Behind Bodymind Medicine, have popularized her groundbreaking theories on consciousness, neurpopeptides, and reality.
