Her research focuses on understanding the pathogenesis, epileptogenesis and pharmacoresistance of focal chronic pharmacoresistant pilepsy, as well as featuring translational aspects. The aim is to find an effective treatment for patients with epilepsy by mapping biological and molecular signalling pathways that contribute towards the development and progression of epilepsy and associated comorbidity. Aronica studies the control mechanisms of inflammatory processes, microRNAs, biomarkers to predict and diagnose the development of disease. Aronica focuses on neuropathological and applied research for patients with neurological diseases. She has published more than 300 peer-reviewed articles and several chapters for books.
