Lorenzo Pini

Lorenzo Pini is a Researcher (RTD-A) at the Department of Neuroscience of the University of Padua, actively collaborating with the Padova Neuroscience Center since 2020 on multicentric projects investigating brain connectivity and responses to neuromodulation in neurological disorders. His work integrates advanced neuroimaging techniques with clinical applications for conditions like Alzheimer's disease and frontotemporal dementia.

His academic credentials include:

• Graduation in Psychology, University of Padova, 2013 (cum laude)
• PhD in Biomedical Sciences and Translational Medicine, University of Brescia, 2019

Dr. Pini's research program systematically explores three interconnected domains: neural circuit analysis in pathological states using multimodal imaging, computational prediction of behavioral deficits in patients, and therapeutic modulation of brain networks through non-invasive stimulation. This translational approach bridges fundamental neuroscience with clinical neurology, emphasizing practical applications for neurodegenerative conditions.

His publication record exceeds 40 peer-reviewed articles in international journals, with lead-author contributions comprising over half of these works. These publications demonstrate consistent focus on connectivity analysis across neurological populations, complemented by his co-ownership of a patented diffusion-based method for predicting glioblastoma patient survival.

He maintains active research partnerships with the University Hospital of Geneva, University of Verona, University of Brescia, Karolinska Institutet, and CHUV Lausanne, fostering cross-institutional collaboration in brain connectivity research and clinical trial design.
