I am a neurologist and PhD student in Neuroscience at the University of Turin, with clinical and research experience in movement disorders, particularly Parkinson’s disease, ataxias, and Huntington chorea. I have recently been a visiting researcher and clinical observer at the UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology and the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery in London, focusing on the genetics of rare movement disorders (Jan-July 2025).
Previously, I worked as a researcher at the genetics lab of IRCCS Fondazione Mondino in Pavia, under the supervision of Prof. Valente, and completed my neurology residency at the University of Turin, where my thesis explored novel stimulation paradigms for freezing of gait in Parkinson’s disease.
