RESEARCH CENTERS
The
laboratories of Cell Biology, Synthesis and Analytic Organic Chemistry, the
Research Groups of NeuroEndocrinology, Neuroscience, Biophysics,
Nutrition/Diabetes and the clinical teams in Cardiology,
Neurosurgery, Surgery for Organ Transplant, ENT are well connected all
over the medical world. In all Medical Institutes of the Ministry of Health
and Family, located in Bucharest the members of our university staff are the
coordinators of the scientific activity. The new and modern Carol Davila
Publishing House has already edited specialized monographs as well as an
international periodic journal "The Journal of Molecular and Cellular
Medicine". The University Library has more than 700,000 volumes and also rare
old medical books and manuscripts. A local area network (LAN) connects the
library with the departments of the School of Medicine and ensures WAN
communication trough Internet.
From the topics of biomedical research,
both theoretical and applied, in which the professors and researchers of our
university have published original results, the following could be
mentioned:
·
Cellular mechanism of myocardial and cerebral ischemia.
