This year, for the twenty-second time, the L'Oréal-UNESCO Women and Science Prize was awarded to exceptionally talented female researchers by a jury of academics. Dr. Eva Borbelli, a researcher from the city of Pécs, received the award for her research in different areas of the brain, during which she examined the areas in the nervous system where “messenger” molecules meet for diseases associated with psychological and physical pain. The result of his work may be the development of pharmaceuticals that can be “fine-tuned” in order to achieve improvement in patients with fewer side effects.
We still know little about how to do this What is the relationship between central nervous system diseases such as dementia, stress, anxiety, depression, and chronic pain syndromes?. The above diseases often reinforce each other, but are currently treated separately, and the available medications often have side effects. The experience of pain can be affected by several factors, such as bad memories or a negative mental state. Dr. Eva Borbely During his work Identifying the areas where the information-carrying molecules of the aforementioned psychological and physical pain diseases meet and come into contact with each other, the goal is to know exactly what processes occur in the central nervous system and the impact of the communications that take place there on the condition of patients.. In the future, discovering the links may help provide treatments that can treat multiple diseases at the same time.
