Prof. Domenico Tricarico

The research interests of the Prof Domenico Tricarico focus on molecular target characterization through the pharmacology of ion channels involved in neuromuscular, metabolic acquired and genetic diseases, and in proliferative disturbances; toxicological and pharmacological investigation in vitro and in vivo, risk/benefit/cost analyses of experimental drugs and post-marketing surveillance through toxicological, pharmacovigilance, and pharmacoeconomic investigations; physiology/pharmacology/toxicology focusing on advanced ion channel biophysics, molecular biology, and pharmacology; skeletal muscle pathophysiology, pharmacology, and toxicology focusing on disorders affecting the neuromuscular apparatus, ion channel-related diseases, and insulin/glucose dysmetabolisms; and drug development focusing on the principles of drug development and the evaluation of experimental protocols in various therapeutic areaa.
