Curriculum

Leonardo Chelazzi is professor of Physiology and chair of the course Physiology II and Psychology. He is also Cairman of the PhD program in Neuroscience, Psychologic and Psychiatric Sciences, and Movement Sciences. His scientific profile pertains to integrative neurophysiology and cognitive neuroscience. His main scientific interests revolve around a number of related topics, notably the neuro-cognitive mechanisms of visual perception, selective attention, learning and memory. He is a member of several national and international scientific societies. He is member of the editorial board of the journals PlosOne and Neuroscience. He acts regularly as ad-hoc reviewers for several scientific journals and for several national and international funding agencies. He is a member of the board of directors of the Consortium "National Institute of Neuroscience" and coordinator of the University of Verona unit. He is member of the scientific committee of the Verona Brain Research Foundation. He is member of the national committee of the Italian professors of physiology.
