At UCI, Dr. Greene performed research in behavioral neuropharmacology under the direction of Dr. James L. McGaugh. Dr. Greene simultaneously performed research with H.W. Moore, chairman of the Department of Chemistry at UCI. Under the direction of these great men, Dr. Greene developed an interest in becoming a physician-scientist.

Dr. Greene's combination of scientific thinking, commitment to the community, and training under the guidance of world-renowned mentors has helped him develop into an outstanding clinician.
