Esat Adıgüzel

I am a professor in the Department of Anatomy at Pamukkale University Faculty of Medicine. I graduated from Ankara University Faculty of Medicine in 1988 and completed my anatomy specialty at Cumhuriyet University in 1996. I have worked at Pamukkale University since 1996, and have been a professor since 2009.

My work is in neuroanatomy and neuroscience: the hippocampus, stereological methods, learning and memory, experimental epilepsy, and neonatal hypoxic-ischemic brain injury models. I also work on anatomy education and clinical anatomy.

Research areas

• Neuroanatomy and hippocampal morphology
• Stereological methods and morphometry
• Learning, memory and experimental epilepsy models
• Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic brain injury and neuroprotective agents
• Tissue clearing (CLARITY) techniques
• Anatomy education (vertical integration, flipped classroom)
• Clinical anatomy
