梅根Sherbenou的科学兴趣集中在人类生物学、进化和健康方面. 她教的课程涉及这些主题.g.、人体解剖学及生理学). The primary focus of her research is the effect of high altitude hypoxia (low oxygen) on humans; this includes both the short- and long-term effects of hypoxia and how the human body adjusts to compensate. Sherbenou研究了基因, 生化, 人群之间(现代人类进化)以及健康和非健康个体之间的解剖和生理差异.
