Biography
Manuela Marcoli has more than 20 years’ experience in studying neurotransmission in the central and peripheral nervous system. She has completed her MD and PhD in
Clinical Pharmacology from Pavia University, Italy. She is a Professor of Pharmacology at the University of Genova, Italy. Main research fields are glutamatergic transmission:
ionotropic/metabotropic receptors and release of neuro- and glio-transmitters in physiological conditions and in pathological animal models; network activity and transmitter
receptors in neuron-astrocyte networks on multi electrode arrays: effects of neuroactive substances and neurotoxicants. She has over 85 publications in peer-reviewed
journals and has been serving as a Reviewer of reputed journals.
