Giancarlo Panzica (Ph.D. Honorary Professor, the Department of Neuroscience, University of Torino, Italy) obtained a master’s degree in biology at the University of Torino and earned his PhD degree at the Department of Anatomy, University of Salamanca (Spain). He had a long academic career at the University of Torino, starting as Researcher and then Associate Professor, and finally Full Professor in Human Anatomy. During this period, he was Director of the Department of Anatomy, Pharmacology and Forensic Medicine, and Director of the Department of Neuroscience. Prof. Panzica is the President of the Italian Group for the Study of Neuromorphology. He is currently retired from the University, but still active in research as Principal Investigator of the Neuroendocrinology laboratory at the Neuroscience Institute Cavalieri-Ottolenghi (NICO), Orbassano (Italy). Giancarlo Panzica is the author of 199 publications listed in PubMed and has an H-index of 41 (Scopus) with more than 5,900 citations. The main focus of his research is the interaction of steroid hormones and the nervous system and its impact on physiology, behaviour, and neural diseases. In the last period, prof. Panzica has explored the permanent or transient effects of exposure to endocrine disruptors on the nervous system, particularly on those neuroendocrine circuits involved in the control of reproduction.
