Novel tailored network-based rTMS treatments in Alzheimer’s disease: an integrated multi-imaging approach Project funded by Italian Ministry of Health, Young Researcher Grant – Ricerca Finalizzata 2016 (GR-2016-02364718). Severe alterations of brain networks connectivity have been described in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) has gained evidence as an effective tool to modulate brain … Read more

The motor bases of joint actions When people act purposively together, how can their actions and thoughts be coordinated around a collective goal? An answer to this question may be extracted from accounts of ‘shared’ or ‘collective’ intentionality. We take it to be uncontroversial that this answer is correct in many cases. But does it … Read more

Temporal and spatial features of interhemispheric information transfer in multiple sclerosis: a multimodal approach of TMS-EEG coregistration, MRI and motor learning Project funded by the Italian Multiple Sclerosis Foundation (FISM 2016/R/2). Demyelination occurring in multiple sclerosis (MS) causes deficits in the conducting properties of axons, altering electrical signaling in the central nervous system. The corpus … Read more
