Research Interest
Professor Gábor Jancsó’s main research interest is the study of the anatomy and function of the somatosensory system. He has discovered the neurotoxic effect of capsaicin-type compounds. This observation has led to the identification of nociceptive primary sensory neurons. He has particular interest in the mechanisms of pain, neurogenic inflammation, the efferent functions of peptidergic sensory nerves and neuroplastic changes which follow peripheral nerve injuries.
