The Experimental Neurophysiology Unit has basic and clinical research activities aimed at the development, validation and application of non invasive electrophysiological methods for the functional assessment and neuromodulation of the nervous system, both in humans and in animal models. The techniques utilized allow to evaluate the nervous system function, using electroencephalography, stimulus-evoked sensory, motor and cognitive potentials, neuromuscular tests, and to provide with non invasive neuromodulatory treatments through non invasive electrical or magnetic stimulation of the brain, spinal cord or peripheral nerves. Moreover, the possibility of applying all these techniques both in humans and in animal models of diseases allows a translational approach, with parallel assessment of molecular mechanisms and clinical validation.
