Dr.med Urechie graduated from University of Milan’s International Medical School manga cum laude. His thesis, conducted in Biochemistry Department, under prof. Laura Riboni guidance, focused on the role of noxious agents in the activation of the nervous system native inflammatory component in inducing primary brain damage and the uncontrolled immune response to the stimulus over time contributing to the onset of an environment favouring the microglia-induced-neuronal death, manifesting in neurodegenerative processes, such as those in, Parkinson Disease, Alzheimer Disease and Multiple Sclerosis.

Afterwards Dr Urechie started his residency training in neurological surgery through the Swiss Medical Federation (FMH) program. While on this position, he begun his PhD in neuroscience, at the University of Southern Switzerland, under prof. Salvatore Galati supervision. His research focused on the effect of inflammation in the disruption of the nervous system homeostasis. In the framework of his PhD program, he trained in integrative physiology of the autonomic nervous system and microneurography of sympathetic activity during his fellowship at Vanderbilt University Medical Centre, mentored by Prof. Andre Diedrich.

Being exposed to different healthcare systems with their own research niche throughout his formative path, including Switzerland, United States, France, Germany and Italy, have allowed him to incorporate the assets of each one of them into his own approach to the scientific investigation.

His areas of interest include neuroinflammation, neurodegeneration, dysautonomia, functional neurosurgery and neurooncology.
