Motor Control group (MMC) uses Non Invasive Brain Stimulation (NIBS) to modulate human cortical brain processing and functions. Our group uses NIBS to increase cortical excitability which may have a huge impact in rehabilitation of patients with motor deficits. It is possible to apply transcranial electrical current (tDCS, tACS) to target specific brain regions or networks of regions in order to increase behavioural performance in healthy humans. This principle has been shown to be valid also in clinical populations of patients. Motion tracking research, NIBS, motor imagery, mirror neurons, motor plasticity, gender excitability indexes are the main topics of our group.
