Curriculum

Formazione Universitaria
Laurea in Medicina e Chirurgia dell’Università degli Studi di Firenze (3 Aprile 1984) Voto di laurea 110/110 e lode.
Abilitazione alla pratica della professione medica (Giugno 1984)con il massimo dei voti 90/90 e lode.
Attività postlaurea
Specializzazione in Neurologia (Novembre 1988) con il massimo dei voti (70/70) e lode. Dottorato di Ricerca (Maggio 1993). Durante il periodo di Dottorato (1990-1991) la Prof. Vannucchi, dopo aver ottenuto una borsa di studio della Università di Yale, ha svolto attività di ricerca presso il Department of Neurobiology della suddetta Università americana, diretto dalla Prof. Patricia S. Goldman-Rakic.
Nel Marzo 1994, la Prof. Vannucchi ha vinto una borsa di Studio postdottorato di due anni presso il Dipartimento di Anatomia. Istologia e Medicina Legale
Nel Gennaio 1998, la Prof. Vannucchi ha sostenuto e vinto un concorso per Ricercatore Universitario presso l’Università degli Studi di Firenze.
Nel marzo 2004, la Prof. Vannucchi ha partecipato e ottenuto l’idoneità ad un concorso di Professore Associato in Istologia fatto presso l’Università di Firenze.
Posizione attuale
La Prof. Vannucchi dal 1 Febbraio 2005 è Professore Associato presso l’Università degli Studi di Firenze e svolge la sua attività di ricerca presso la Sezione di Istologia del Dipartimento di Anatomia, Istologia e Medicina Legale.
Attività di Ricerca:
La Prof. Vannucchi lavora da numerosi anni nel campo della neurotrasmissione sia nel sistema nervoso centrale (SNC) che in quello periferico, a livello del sistema nervoso enterico. A livello del SNC la Prof. Vannucchi ha studiato i meccanismi cellulari responsabili dell’apprendimento e della memoria negli animali giovani, e della compromissione di queste funzioni durante l’invecchiamento fisiologico e patologico (demenze). Più recentemente, la Prof. Vannucchi ha studiato in un modello animale di occlusione dell’arteria cerebrale media (MCAo), l’effetto dell’ ischemia permanente sulla neurotrasmissione purinergica e dell’ischemia transiente sull’espressione degli enzimi responsabili della produzione dell’ossido nitrico nNOS e iNOS nei neuroni e nelle cellule di glia.
A livello periferico la Prof. Vannucchi ha studiato il sistema nervoso interessandosi sia della componente eccitatoria (colinergica e tachichinergica) che di quella inibitoria (nitrergica) coinvolte nella regolazione dell’attività motoria della parete muscolare gastrointestinale. Gli studi sull’animale sono stati fatti durante lo sviluppo e nell’animale adulto, sia in condizioni normali che patologiche, quali l’infiammazione e la distrofia muscolare.
Per ottenere i risultati raggiunti la Prof. Vannucchi ha utilizzato diverse tecniche (farmacologiche: fettine cerebrali stimolate in campo elettrico e la microdialisi per valutare la liberazione dei neurotrasmettitori, nonché il binding dei recettori; biochimiche: autoradiografia, cromatografia liquida ad alta pressione e western blotting; morfologiche: istochimica ed immonoistochimica, morfometria, microscopia elettronica a trasmissione convenzionale ed immunoelettromicroscopia) ed i risultati ottenuti sono stati oggetto di numerose pubblicazioni.
Ad oggi, la Prof. Vannucchi ha 142 pubblicazioni scientifiche. 72 sono lavori in extenso, 58 dei quali pubblicati in giornali internazionali con Editorial Board e quotati nel Science Citation Index. 14 sono capitoli di libri (7 a diffusione nazionale) (7 a diffusione internazionale) 70 sono abstracts, 60 presentati in congressi internazionali, 10 in congressi nazionali.
La Prof. Vannucchi è referee per i seguenti giornali internazionali: Neuroscience Letters; Neuroscience, Brain Research; European Journal of Physiology, Neurogastroenterology and Motility, Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Pharmacy and Pharmacology, Neurochemistry International. E’ anche referee dell’ International Foundation: The Bi-national Science Foundation.
