Interest

Dr. Freeman studied the role of the hypothalamus in regulating the secretion of hormones from the pituitary gland that are involved in reproductive processes. He was particularly interested in the role of dopamine in controlling the secretion of prolactin, the hormone that controls milk synthesis in the mammary gland.
