Viviana Betti
Principal Investigator
Associate Professor of Psychobiology and Physiological Psychology
 
​Viviana Betti is an associate professor of Functional Neuroanatomy and Cognitive Neuroimaging at the Department of Psychology, Sapienza University of Rome. She is the Director of the Cognitive and System neuroscience lab (Cosynclab) based at IRCCS Fondazione Santa Lucia and the Department of Psychology. She is PI of International and national research projects and authors of high impact peer-review publications addressing how cognitive, visual, and motor tasks reorganize the intrinsic connections of the brain.
Prof. Betti is also a junior research fellow at the Sapienza School for Advanced Studies (Ssas) and part of the board member of the Italian Society of psychophysiology and cognitive neuroimaging.

Marco Tramontano
Clinical Trial Manager
 
​Marco is a Physiotherapist with a Ph.D. in Human Movement and Sport Sciences. 
He has expertise in dynamic balance assessment and treating patients with vestibular and neurological disorders. He is studying the neurophysiological correlates in patients with balance and gait disorders during dynamic tasks. At Cosynclab, he manages the patients’ recruitment for the clinical trials and is the key person for the instrumental evaluation.

Matteo Marucci
Ph.D., Post-Doctoral Research Fellow


​Matteo is a Psychologist with a PhD in Neuroscience. He has a background in Virtual Reality (VR) and expertise on embodiment, presence, ownership, and agency. He is now working in combining VR with electrophysiological techniques such as EEG, EMG, and GSR.

Ottavia Maddaluno
Ph.D., Post-Doctoral Research Fellow

Ottavia received her Ph.D. in Psychology, Linguistic and Cognitive Neuroscience from the University of Milano-Bicocca where she specialized in non-invasive brain stimulation techniques (e.g., Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation and Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation) investigating Hebbian-like plasticity mechanisms. At Cosynclab she works with Hd-EEG and MEG data. Her current research aims to investigate how brain architecture during spontaneous activity predicts the topology of task-evoked activity.​

Francesca Leone
Ph.D., post-doctoral research fellow
 
Francesca is a bioengineer Ph.D. in Science and Engineering for Humans and the Environment at the University Campus Bio-Medico of Rome. Her background focuses on physiological data analysis and the development of machine learning algorithms based on superficial electromyographic (sEMG) signals for the intuitive and fluid control of multiple degrees of freedom upper-limb prostheses.
Currently, she is part of HANDmade, an ERC-funded project. She develops PR-based novel solutions to merge EMG signals and virtual reality, to control the naturalistic interaction with the virtual environment.

Daniele Sili
​Research Fellow
Daniele received his master's degree in Biomedical Engineering from the Sapienza University of Roma. His research activity is focused on computational methods of fMRI data analysis to study the human brain function in resting-state. His skills include preprocessing fMRI data, statistical analysis models, univariate and multivariate methods of analysis, brain connectivity, and machine learning. He is able to program in Matlab, Python, and in Unix systems (Bash).

Yara ​El Rassi
Research Fellow

​After she completed my Bachelor’s in general psychology at the American University of Beirut, she acquired a Master’s in Neuroscience at the University of Trento, Italy, basing my research on the underlying mechanisms of temporal perception. She is now part of the ERC-funded project HANDmade, investigating the representation of hands and motion in intrinsic activity using both EEG and fMRI techniques. The hypothesis is that intrinsic activity represents internal models of the world and creates priors to allow exploration and learning.
