Overview

Roberto Frussa-Filho was affiliated with the Federal University of Sao Paulo in Brazil. Their research contributions were primarily in the field of Neuroscience, with a particular focus on Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience. Additional subfields included Cognitive Neuroscience, Molecular Biology, and Pharmacology.

Their work explored several main topics within neuroscience, highlighting:

  • Neurotransmitter Receptor Influence on Behavior
  • Memory and Neural Mechanisms
  • Receptor Mechanisms and Signaling
  • Cannabis and Cannabinoid Research
  • Neuroscience and Neuropharmacology Research

Roberto Frussa-Filho contributed to at least two significant research papers published between 2020 and 2023. These papers addressed behavioral sensitization and receptor mechanisms in animal models, specifically female mice:

  • Role of the treatment environment in the effects of aripiprazole on ethanol-induced behavioral sensitization and conditioned place preference in female mice, 2020, Drug and Alcohol Dependence
  • Context-dependent effects of the CB1 receptor antagonist rimonabant on morphine-induced behavioral sensitization in female mice, 2023, Frontiers in Pharmacology

Their frequent co-authors included Renan Santos-Baldaia, A.W. Hollais, Laís F. Berro, E.A.V. Marinho, and Alexandre J. Oliveira-Lima, with whom they collaborated on multiple occasions.

Publication venues where Roberto Frussa-Filho's work appeared included Drug and Alcohol Dependence and Frontiers in Pharmacology.
