 RESEARCH  INTERESTS

The research activities have concentrated on the study of the “trigeminal system” (trigeminal nerve and trigeminal pathways in the central nervous system), emphasizing questions of hodology, synaptic connections, neurotransmitters and patterns of innervation in different anatomical territories. The methodology  includes transmission electron microscopy, anterograde and retrograde neuronal tracers, as well as immunohistochemistry of neurotransmitters.
