The central themes of clinical research were epilepsy, cerebro-vascular diseases, viral encephalitis, aphasia. Basic research dealt especially with states of consciousness, physiology of the thalamus, conditioned reflexes a.s.o. From the initial anatomo-clinical orientation, Romanian neurology evolved to a neurophysiological one, involving such modern topics as neurochemistry, neurogenetics and neuropsychology. The following neurologists from the next generation should be quoted: Ion Olteanu, Constantin Bălăceanu-Stolnici (a pioneer of neurocybernetics), Arcadie Petrescu (neuropathology), Aurel Mareş, Virgil Chivu and Ion Voinescu (clinical neurology). There are also some neurologists representatives of the Romanian school of neurology, who imposed themselves in different other countries:
