He is regarded as one of the most prestigious neurophysiologists in the international community. His studies have been fundamentally directed to the analysis of mechanisms of the central control of the information transmitted by the sensory fibers in the spinal cord, and of how these are modified during central and peripheral injuries, as well as during processes of acute inflammation.[1]

Born from Russian parents. He is a graduate of the Biology program of the National School of Biological Sciences of the National Polytechnic Institute (IPN. México). He has been the director of the program of neuroscience at the CINVESTAV (Center for Research and Advanced Studies) of the IPN since 1984. At the neuroscience program, his research has focused on the analysis of the central nervous system control mechanisms for the transmission of information that is conveyed by nerve fibers originating in the skin and muscles to the lumbosacral spinal cord.

He has also been a guest researcher at the following centers:

He has also held honorary positions:

  • President of the Mexican Academy of Sciences
  • Vice-president of the Mexican Society of Physiological Sciences
