Salif Axel Komi

Salif Axel Komi is a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Department of Neuroscience at the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Copenhagen. His research focuses on neuronal signalling within the Neuronal Signalling group, investigating neural mechanisms of movement and brain rhythms.

His primary research interests include Neuroscience, Neurophysiology, and Motor Control, with specific expertise in Brain Stimulation techniques and Animal Behavior analysis. Current work examines how pedunculopontine nucleus stimulation modulates hippocampal theta oscillations and movement execution, alongside developing real-time vision-based adaptive systems for precise gait assessment.

Recent publications (2023-2025) reveal a cohesive research trajectory integrating neurophysiological recording with behavioral analysis. His work bridges motor control disorders and neural oscillation dynamics, demonstrating particular innovation in adaptive treadmill technology for animal models. Key contributions include elucidating causal relationships between brainstem stimulation, theta rhythm disruption, and movement arrest.

Dr. Komi operates within the Neuronal Signalling research group, which specializes in cellular and molecular mechanisms of neuronal communication and signal transduction pathways relevant to movement disorders.
