Prof. Lars Larsson, Department of Physiology and Pharmacology, Sweden
Publication Profile
Education
Prof. Lars Larsson embarked on his journey by enrolling as a medical student at the prestigious Karolinska Institute in 1971. His pursuit of knowledge led him to obtain a PhD from the Department of Physiology in 1978, followed by an MD degree in 1982, both from the same institution. By 1985, Larsson had solidified his expertise, achieving specialization in clinical neurophysiology. This educational trajectory laid the foundation for his subsequent impactful contributions to the field, marking the beginning of a distinguished career marked by innovation and dedication. ππ§
