Mary Ann Ottinger
Dr. Mary Ann Ottinger is a Professor Emeritus in the Department of Biology and Biochemistry at the University of Houston in Houston, Texas in the United States. Previously, she was Professor in the Department Animal and Avian Sciences at University of Maryland, College Park. Dr. Ottinger received her PhD in Behavioral Neuroendocrinology from the University of Maryland. Her research incorporates interdisciplinary and comparative biology approaches to understand the impacts of environmental chemicals, especially endocrine disruptors (EDCs) on the development of endocrine and behavioral components of reproduction, neuroendocrine system function, and the comparative biology of aging. Her studies have focused on a spectrum of species, ranging from birds to non-human primates, providing expertise in translational studies across model systems.
