Abstract

The present project comprise several sub-projects which main objective, through a integrative approach, is to contribute to the understanding how the Central Nervous System (CNS) contributes to the maintenance of the cardiovascular function in the awake and the anesthetized animal. Two levels were initially selected: the medullar and the hypothalamic level. (AU)
