Viviana Betti Principal Investigator Associate Professor of Psychobiology and Physiological Psychology |
Viviana Betti is Associate Professor of Functional Neuroanatomy and Cognitive Neuroimaging at the Department of Psychology, Sapienza University of Rome. She directs the Cognitive and System Neuroscience Lab (Cosynclab), based at both the Department of Psychology and the IRCCS Fondazione Santa Lucia.She is the Principal Investigator of national and international research projects and author of numerous high-impact, peer-reviewed publications focused on how cognitive, visual, and motor processes reorganize the brain's intrinsic connectivity. Prof. Betti is also a Junior Research Fellow at the Sapienza School for Advanced Studies (SSAS).

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.

Adriano Parasiliti Collazzo Student - Research Fellow |
Adriano received his MSc in Cognitive Neuroscience and Rehabilitation from Sapienza University of Rome. Since 2024, he has been involved in the research lab, contributing to the analysis of high-density EEG data during resting-state and motor tasks. His current research focuses on investigating dynamic changes in brain activity and functional connectivity during the observation of both common and uncommon movements.

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).

Simona Vasta PhD student |
Simona received her Master’s degree in Cognitive Neuroscience and Psychological Rehabilitation from Sapienza University of Rome. She completed a traineeship at cosynclab, where she is gaining experience with EEG, fMRI, and virtual reality. Her current work focuses on investigating maladaptive changes in EEG activity in neurological patients and individuals affected by major depressive disorder. 
|
Cristina Perciballi Research Fellow |
Cristina received her Ph.D. in Morphogenesis and Tissue Engineering from Sapienza University of Rome.She is currently involved in research projects that combine fMRI and virtual reality, with a focus on how the observation of common and uncommon movements modulates brain activity and functional connectivity.
Her work also investigates the plastic reorganization of intrinsic brain activity following intensive motor training, both in individuals with limb amputation and in control participants. 
|
Teresa Ramundo PHD Student |
Teresa received her master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from the University of Padua. She is currently a PhD student in Cognitive, Computational and Social Neurosciences at the IMT School for Advanced Studies Lucca. Her research focuses on the hand representation in the resting state activity. 
|
Aurelia Schirripa PHD Student |
Aurelia received her master's degree in Applied Experimental Psychological Sciences from Bicocca University of Milan.
She is currently a Phd student in Psychology and Cognitive Sciences at Sapienza. Her research is focused on integration of tactile and motor system, studying behavioral and electrophysiological data.
