Title of the Project
“The brain’s dark energy: observation, perturbation, and disruption studies of brain networks to understand cognition and stroke recovery”, P.I. Prof. Maurizio Corbetta
Purpose of the Research Grant
Funded by Funds Call for Scientific Research of Excellence 2018 of the Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Padova e Rovigo, the purpose of the Research Grant is “To collect data on eye movements and brain imaging (e.g., EEG) in healthy subjects and patients with stroke to understand the relationship between behavior, lesions, cortical dynamics, and brain signals.
The post-doc shall be expert in signal analysis, especially eye movement recordings, EEG, and MRI, and statistical analysis based on univariate and multivariate methods.”

Title of the project
In vivo functional characterization of whole brain- and population-level dynamics in genetic mouse models of migraine.
Abstract of the project
Migraine is a remarkably disabling and still poorly understood brain disorder which primarily affects the sensory nervous system. It is characterized by recurrent attacks of unilateral headache and by a global dysfunction in multisensory information processing. Previous investigations at the microcircuit level in genetic models of migraine have revealed significant alterations in the cortical excitatory synaptic transmission due to impaired mechanisms of glutamate release and glutamate clearance.
