Curriculum

Buffelli Mario Rosario is Full Professor of Physiology and currently is teaching in the courses of Medicine and Surgery and Physiotherapy. His main research interest is focused on the molecular, structural and functional mechanisms regulating neuronal plasticity in physiological and pathological conditions (Alzheimer's disease, autism and other neurological diseases). In particular, the role of glia (microglia and astrocytes) and the intracellular signals underlying the formation of synaptic contacts, axonal growth, neurogenesis and apoptosis.
