Biography

I am a Clinical Neuropsychologist specializing in neurosurgical neuropsychology, with a particular research focus on the neurocognitive deficits of patients with Brain Tumors and Hydrocephalus as well as functional anatomy and brain cortical and subcortical mapping. My research interests have been driven by the potential of neuropsychological, neuroimaging and neurophysiological methods (e.g. neurocognitive assessment, functional Magnetic Resonance Tomography, Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation and Intraoperative electric current stimulation) to identify and preserve critical functions of human behavior (language, motor, visuospatial processing, memory etc.) pre- and intra-operatively. Overall, my research has been based on two scientific axons: the contribution of Neuropsychology in Neurosurgery field by showing that neurocognitive assessment can help surgeon’s treatment decision making, patient’s postoperative quality of life and survival; and secondly, the contribution of neurosurgery in expanding our knowledge in Neuropsychology-Neurosciences in concern with cognitive functions-networks and their anatomical correlates.
