Scientific interests are in the field of physiological regulation during the wake-sleep cycle. In particular, the neurophysiological and neurochemical aspects underlying the relationship between sleep and the enviroment have been addressed. The scientific activity is carried out in the Research Group " Physiological Regulation in the Wake-Sleep Cycle" as coordinator of the "Laboratory 1. Behaviour"

i) study of physiological regulation during the wake-sleep cycle;

ii) stidy of the pattern and the regulatory aspects of the wake-sleep cycle ;

iii) study at molecular level of the activity of specif brain area involved in wake/sleep, autonomic, and endocrine regulatory processes,
