Jerzy Dziewiątkowski

Jerzy Dziewiątkowski is an Assistant Professor in the Division of Anatomy and Neurobiology at the Faculty of Medicine, Medical University of Gdańsk. His research focuses on neurology, apoptosis, stress responses, and brain morphology, with particular emphasis on experimental models using mice and rats. He explores topics such as calcium binding proteins, ischemia, stroke mechanisms, and neurodegenerative processes in aging.

• Key research areas: Neuroanatomy, cellular stress pathways, and developmental neurobiology.
• Utilizes animal models (mice, rats, rabbits) to study brain pathologies and neuroprotective strategies.

With 75 documented publications, his work contributes to understanding apoptosis, claustrum function, and amygdala-striatum interactions. His studies often involve techniques like c-Fos staining and analysis of calretinin expression in neural tissues.
