  • Functional Mapping of Somatostatin receptors in the Basal Ganglia

  • Involvement of Somatostatin in the pathophysiology and therapeutics of affective disorders

In collaboration with the late Christina Spyraki, Prof of Pharmacology and Assoc Professor Andreas Kastellakis, Department of Psychology, University of Crete we have investigated the functional role of somatostatin receptors in brain areas (basal ganglia nuclei) and their implication in the pathophysiology and therapeutics of neurological disease and affective disorders
