Received his B.S. degree in Physics from the University of Santa Clarain 1970 and an M.S. degree in Physics from Purdue University in 1972. He received his Ph.D. in Biological Sciences from Purdue University in 1975. His research interests include the role of endogenous ionic currents in cell and tissuephysiology and the ionic regulation of cell activation. Currently he is studying theelectric fields associated with human skin wound healing and developing electrotherapy to enhance wound healing rates. Dr. Nuccitelli joined Old Dominion University in the winter of 2003 and is presently an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical and ComputerEngineering and the Center for Bioelectrics. He has published four books and more than 100 publications in peer-reviewed journals.
