Konstantinos Tsamis is Neurologist and Assistance Professor of Physiology in the School of Medicine, University of Ioannina since May 2021. His research interests are mainly focused on the structure and function of neuronal circuits, on mechanisms underlying synapses’ formation, their disruption in neurological disorders and the effect of different therapeutic agents. His team is currently working on the efficacy of the treatments on models of neurodegenerative disorders. Other research interests include brain oscillations, brain- machine interface, nerve conduction studies, and diagnostic approaches to neuropathies and myopathies. His teaching activities include physiology and neurology in pre-graduate medical students and neuroscience in master students. He is also enthusiastically engaged in science outreach events with the team Exploring the Brain (https://www.exploringthebrain.gr/).
