Curriculum breve di Enrica Bianchi
Enrica Bianchi: è ricercatore confermato (raggruppamento BIO14) presso il Dipartimento di
Scienze Medico Chirurgiche e Neuroscienze dell'Università di Siena dal 1982. La sua attività di
ricerca è rivolta alla Farmacologia Molecolare degli oppioidi ed ha contribuito a chiarire la funzione
degli oppioidi esogeni ed endogeni in relazione al dolore acuto e cronico come evidenziato dalle
pubblicazioni sull'argomento in riviste internazionali. Ha ricevuto finanziamenti MiUR (Italia) e
NIH(USA) per svolgere tali ricerche.
Svolge attività quale:
-membro del comitato editoriale delle riviste scientifiche Medical Science Monitor and
Neuroendocrinology Letters;
-revisore scientifico per Elsevier Publishing Group;
-socio fondatore della International Morphine Society;
-expertise di progetti di ricerca per il CNRF.
Ha esperienza in Farmacocinetica Preclinica e Clinica.
