Krystyna Bogus-Nowakowska

Dr. Krystyna Bogus-Nowakowska serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Animal Anatomy and Physiology at the Faculty of Biology and Biotechnology, University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn, Poland.

Her research focuses on:

• Structural organization of mammalian brain regions (amygdala, hippocampus, septum, preoptic area)
• Calcium-binding proteins (calbindin, calretinin, parvalbumin) expression patterns
• Neuropeptide systems (NPY, galanin) and neuroendocrine regulation
• Effects of psychoactive substances (cocaine, amphetamines) on neural circuits
• Estrogen receptor distribution and developmental neurobiology

With 63 publications and a Web of Science h-index of 9, her work utilizes guinea pig (Cavia porcellus) and mouse models to investigate fundamental neuroanatomical pathways. She has supervised 14 promoted theses, demonstrating significant mentorship activity in biological sciences.

Her research falls entirely within biological sciences (100% classification) with strong emphasis on:

• Neurochemical mapping techniques
• Postnatal brain development
• GABAergic systems
• Tyrosine hydroxylase expression
