The Neuroscience Research Center Timisoara is involved in pluridisciplinary research in neurology, neurosurgery and neuroscience in general.

Our key projects are in neurophysiology:

  1. Defining normal values for evoked potentials in the Romanian population. While these have been well defined in other regions no data has been published about normal responses in the Romanian population.
  2. The neurophysiology of the dorsal ganglion
  3. The Study of mismatch negativity by somatosensory stimulation

Projects in clinical neuroscience involve:

  1. Survival of patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma in the Vest region of Romania
  2. Clinical result after stroke in the Vest region of Romania
  3. Clinical result after aneurysmal SAH in the Vest region of Romania

Methodological research

  1. Recommendations concerning the use of mismatch negativity in clinical practice
  2. Recommendations for the interventional treatment of Parkinson’s disease
