Gregers Wegener is a Professor in Experimental Psychiatry at Aarhus University, Denmark. He obtained his MD and PhD in Pharmacology from Aarhus University and later earned a DSc in Psychiatry. His research focuses on experimental psychiatry, particularly the neurobiology of depression and anxiety, with an emphasis on neuroplasticity, antidepressant mechanisms, and the effects of rapid-acting interventions such as ketamine. His work also explores transgenerational mental and metabolic health consequences related to diet, microbiome, inflammation, and environmental factors. This work involves mostly preclinical studies and includes behavioural tasks, viral vector mapping, chemogenetics, and Immunohistochemistry. .  He has held leadership positions in scientific committees, including being president of the SCNP, chair of the Educational Committee at the International College of Neuropsychopharmacology (CINP), and co-founder of International Network for the History of Neuropsychopharmacology (INHN).
