Corneliu E. Giurgea (6 January 1923, Bucharest – 30 December 1995, Brussels) was a Romanian psychologist and chemist. In 1964 he synthetised Piracetam, which he has described as a nootropic. Giurgea coined the term ''nootropic''〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=PHAR 402 )〕 in 1972. ==Nootropic characteristics== He stated that nootropic drugs should have the following characteristics: # They should enhance learning and memory. # They should enhance the resistance of learned behaviors/memories to conditions which tend to disrupt them (e.g. electroconvulsive shock, hypoxia). # They should protect the brain against various physical or chemical injuries (e.g. barbiturates, scopalamine). # They should increase the efficacy of the tonic cortical/subcortical control mechanisms. # They should lack the usual pharmacology of other psychotropic drugs (e.g. sedation, motor stimulation) and possess very few side effects and extremely low toxicity. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Corneliu E.
