Michelangelo presented MOTUM at MNESYS meeting 2025.
Our PhD student Michelangelo Tani presented a poster entitled: “MOTUM: Motion Online Tracking Under MRI” at MNESYS 2025, Genoa, Italy.
Visiting Dr. Ashok Jansari presented “Detecting Pre-Clinical Signs of MCI or Dementia in Healthy Elderly Populations”.
“Detecting Pre-Clinical Signs of MCI or Dementia in Healthy Elderly Populations” Novel memory test, VALMT, detects early signs of dementia in aging populations and individuals with sports-related head injuries. Highlights the need for sensitive screening tools and explores links between disrupted sleep and memory issues in the elderly. Implications for dementia diagnosis and treatment.

Federica Bencivenga successfully defended her PhD thesis.
Our PhD student Federica Bencivenga presented a thesis entitled “Neural underpinnings of visuomotor functions: Insights from brain connectivity”. In which she explored visuomotor connectivity applting multiple methodologies and techniques. Congratulations!!!
Our paper “Neural sensitivity to translational self‐and object‐motion velocities” is now out in Human Brain Mapping.
Among the egomotion areas, MT+, V6+, and V3A responses are modulated by object-motion velocities during self-motion, hence reflecting their possible role in discriminating between distinct velocities of self- and object-motion.
