About me

Doctor of Medicine and Surgery with Extraordinary Award (UPV/EHU, 1986) and postdoctoral researcher at the Brain Research Institute, University of Zurich (1986-1989). Professor at the UPV / EHU since 1984 and Full Professor of Human Anatomy and Embryology since 2002. He teaches undergraduate courses in Medicine and Postgraduate courses in Neuroscience. He has been secretary (2003-2007) and director of the Department of Neurosciences (UPV / EHU, 2007-2015); member of the Ethics Committee in Research with Biological Agents and Genetically Modified Organisms of the UPV/EHU (2009-2013), of the Board of the Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry (2012-2017) and of the Postgraduate Commission of the UPV/ EHU (2013-2016). He is coordinator of the Interuniversity Doctoral Program in Neurosciences.

Dr. Pedro Grandes is a collaborating researcher at the University of Victoria (Canada). His research deals with the study of the cannabinoid system in the normal and diseased brain (alcoholism, stress, epilepsy, mild head trauma).
