Research Interest: computational neuroscience for cognitive functions and neurological diseases
“I’m a postdoctoral researcher working on the development and application of methods from computational neuroscience to explore neurological diseases and cognitive functions. I’m particularly interested in investigated brain complex networks in neurophysiological data, especially MEG, EEG and stereoEEG.
I obtained my PhD at the Polytechnic University of Milan and I worked as postdoctoral researcher in the Neurological Institute C. Besta, where I mainly focused in the development of computational methods for epilepsy care.”
