I am a subtle, empathetic, and wide-ranging researcher on human brain and behavior, who is passionate in technology, arts, and social relationships. I set up a well-rounded profile from Neurosciences and Clinical Research to design and usability, and I am currently looking for User Experience challenges in new applications.
Thesis Title: Treatment with Non Invasive Brain Stimulation (NIBS) of cognitive impairments linked to cancer therapy. Literature review. Supervisor Prof. Alessandra Gorini. In an evidence–based practice approach, I analyzed the literature in order to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Neuromodulation as therapeutic instrument. Results of my research were successfully used to obtain the ethical approval for the design of a clinical study on oncologic patients.
