    Collapse Overview 
    Collapse overview
    Dr. Cornett is a professor in the Department of Physiology and Cell Biology at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. Dr. Cornett earned a BS in biology from the University of California, Riverside, his PhD in physiology from the University of California, Davis and was a postdoctoral fellow in reproductive endocrinology and cardiovascular physiology at the University of California, San Francisco. His research interest include the role of beta2-adrenergic receptors in mediating airway responsiveness in asthma and hormonal regulation of stress responses at the level of the pituitary gland. In addition, Dr. Cornett is the Director of the Arkansas IDeA Network of Biomedical Research Excellence (INBRE), a program funded by the National Institutes of Health to develop biomedical research infrastructure in the state. Dr. Cornett is a member of the EPSCoR/IDeA Foundation Board, the Arkansas Children's Research Institute Board, and a member of the National Committee for the National Association of IDeA Principal Investigators. Among his many honors, Dr. Cornett received a fellowship from the NIH Fogarty Center and a Research Career Enhancement Award from the American Physiological Society.
