Autorenporträt

Juan Idiaquez: Professor Idiaquez works at the Universidad de Valparaiso and Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. His research to date has chiefly focused on clinical and neurophysiological studies of autonomic dysfunction in central and peripheral nervous system disorders and the influence of the aging process on autonomic function in healthy subjects. He has contributed substantial work on the quantitative assessment of symptoms and noninvasive autonomic tests in these areas, and has published in close collaboration with experts from major clinical autonomic departments. Eduardo Benarroch: Professor Benarroch is a Consultant to the Department of Neurology at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. His research has mainly focused on the neuropathological basis of autonomic failure in neurodegenerative disorders, and he has published extensively in this and other areas related to autonomic function and diseases. He is co-author with ProfessorPhillip Low of the book Clinical Autonomic Disorders. Martin Nogues: Professor of Neurology at the University of Buenos Aires and Chairman of the Neurology Department and Neurophysiology Lab at FLENI. His activities have included coordinating the Department and the neuromuscular unit, teaching neurology to students and residents, and conducting clinical research on neuromuscular diseases and autonomic dys function. Dr. Nogués is an active member of the Argentine Neurological Society and the Argentine Neurophysiological Society, as well as a member of the editorial committee of the Journal of Clinical Autonomic Research. He is also a past member of the Royal Society of Medicine and of the American Association of Electrodiagnostic Medicine
