Giuditta Antonio

 
Nato a Catanzaro il 19 marzo 1932; diploma di maturità classica nel 1949.
Laureato in Medicina e Chirurgia con 110 e lode (1955, Università di Napoli “Federico II”), ha iniziato la sua carriera di biologo alla Stazione Zoologica (Napoli), e successivamente al Ford Institute for Medical Research (Detroit, MI, USA), all’Albert Einstein College of Medicine (New York, NY, USA) e all’Istituto di Fisiologia Umana (Università di Ferrara).
Nel 1962 ha contribuito alla fondazione del Laboratorio Internazionale di Genetica e Biofisica di Napoli (direttore, prof. Adriano Buzzati Traverso); dal 1962 al 1987 ha diretto nello stesso istituto il gruppo di Neurobiologia molecolare, prima come ricercatore e poi come direttore di ricerca CNR.
Dal 1980 è professore di Fisiologia generale (Università di Perugia per un anno e poi Università “Federico II” di Napoli).
Dal 1966 frequenta nei mesi estivi il Marine Biological Laboratory di Woods Hole (MA, USA) dove dirige un laboratorio di ricerca.
Ha pubblicato 180 lavori, in gran parte di argomento neurobiologico, su riviste scientifiche di lingua inglese.
Ha curato la pubblicazione di tre volumi: – Role of RNA and DNA in Brain Function: A Molecular Biological Approach (1986); – Apprendimento e Memoria (1993), – The Function of Sleep (1995).
I suoi interessi di ricerca riguardano il sistema locale di espressione genica nell’assone e nelle terminazioni nervose, il ruolo del sonno nell’elaborazione delle memorie e il ruolo del DNA cerebrale nell’apprendimento e nel sonno.
E’ segretario dell’Accademia di Scienze Fisiche e Matematiche di Napoli.
