!!Giacomo Koch - Biography
\\
Professor Giacomo Koch trained in London at the University College of London.\\
\\
For more than ten years he has been involved in the acute treatment of stroke in the Stroke Unit of the Policlinico Tor Vergata in Rome.\\
\\
He has directed the noninvasive brain stimulation laboratory at the Fondazione S. Lucia IRCCS in Rome since 2006. He has decades of experience in the field of clinical neurophysiology of the motor system and cognitive functions, with a translational approach to the study and treatment of cerebrovascular diseases, movement disorders and Alzheimer's disease.\\
\\
He has held the position of Full Professor of Physiology at the University of Ferrara since 2020.\\
\\
His main expertise is based on the application of non-invasive brain stimulation techniques such as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and Transcranial Continuous Current Stimulation (TDCS). Used in conjunction with clinical neuroimaging methods such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and electroencephalography (EEG), they allow the identification of the neuro-anatomical basis of neurophysiological modulations of cortical activity induced by noninvasive brain stimulation.\\
\\
In that field, Professor Giacomo Koch has won numerous international awards, appearing among the top ten top experts in the world by number of publications. He is the author of about 330 international publications with an H-index of 70, is on the list of Top Italian Scientists (TIS), and is a Distinguished Professor in Neurology and Physiology.\\
\\
The translational approach of his research is evidenced by the design and conduct of clinical trials for which he has been Principal Investigator (PI) in the field of cerebrovascular pathology and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease.\\ \\[{ALLOW view All}][{ALLOW edit gkoch}][{ALLOW upload gkoch}][{ALLOW comment All}]
