Jim Pfaus - Unlocking the Science of Sexual Behavior

February 20, 2023 • Tyler Gleckler

Today I’m speaking with Dr. Jim Pfaus, Professor of Neuroscience at Charles University in Prague, and the Research Director of the Center for Sexual Health and Intervention at the Czech National Institute of Mental Health. Jim’s research focuses on the neurobiology, neurochemistry, and molecular biology of sexual behavior, and examines how the brain’s neurochemical and neuroanatomical systems are organized for sexual arousal, desire, pleasure, and inhibition. Over Jim’s more than 30 years as a professor, he has received countless awards for his work as both a research scientist and science communicator, and his work has been reported worldwide in popular media including Time, Scientific American, the BBC, and many more.
