The CNR Neuroscience Institute collaborates with several Research Institutes both public or private, both in Italy or abroad. In the framework of these collaborations the Institute implements top-level technologies in the following sectors:

Morphological analyses of cells and tissues using state-of-the-art technologies in optical and electron microscopy
o analysis of electrical properties in excitable cells and tissues
Studies on drug receptors using functional or binding techniques
o pharmacological studies using both in vitro cell cultures or animal models
o studies on gene expression
o pharmacogenetic studies
Studies on drugs and substances acting on secretion, cell polarity and the intracellular traffic of membranes and proteins.
o proteomic analysis of cell membranes
o genomic and/or proteomic studies in bioinformatic Databanks
o quantitation of 3D vascular networks in physio-pathological conditions
Scientific and administrative organisation of courses, seminars and meetings
