À propos

TNG

A medical doctor and neurologist by training, I hold a Ph. D. in Engineering. My main area of expertise is the study of novel methods to describe the global changes that neurodegenerative diseases induce in the brain. To tackle this issue, I base my analyses mainly on magnetoencephalography. I have contributed to applying frameworks such as the study of synchronization, dynamical systems and network topology to brain-derived data. I am a co-founder of the MEG facility in Naples, where I curated the setting up of the laboratory as well as the acquisitions of various cohorts of patients. I am currently involved in the attempt to adjust models in order to improve predictions of the large-scale behavior of the brain. All in all, I am still moved by the desire to contribute to unraveling and measuring the properties that make the human brain what it is.
