Dr. Gambeta completed a bachelor's in Biological Sciences from the Federal University of Paraná in 2015. He completed his master's degree in pharmacology in the laboratory of Dr. Juliana G. Chichorro, and a PhD in Neuroscience in 2022 at the University of Calgary under the supervision of Dr. Gerald W. Zamponi. He did a short postdoctoral training in Dr. Tuan Trang's laboratory at the University of Calgary. Recently, he joined Dr. Michael Hildebrand's laboratory at Carleton University. His expertise lies in orofacial pain and voltage-gated calcium channels, with over ten years of experience with animal behavior. 

Collection Overview

A comprehensive investigation of trigeminal neuralgia necessitates innovative methodologies to uncover its intricate pathophysiology and formulate more efficient treatments. This Methods Collection introduces state-of-the-art approaches, encompassing in vivo, in vitro, and clinical methodologies. These approaches aim to enhance the evaluation of TN patients and provide more translational experimental models for research. Included are pioneering translational animal models, assessment of trigeminal pain in vivo, in-depth in vitro analysis, and clinical evaluation of individuals with trigeminal neuralgia. 

These animal models, designed to mirror patient symptoms, offer invaluable insights into disease mechanisms, thereby promoting more decisive treatment strategies. The carefully curated collection bridges the gap between preclinical and clinical domains, fostering significant advancements in trigeminal neuralgia research. By integrating advanced techniques, this compilation paves the way for groundbreaking discoveries in understanding and addressing trigeminal neuralgia.
