I was born in Catania (Italy) in 1982. After a 3-years activity as Senior Academic Researcher, I currently work as Associate Professor at the University of Catania (Italy). After graduation with honours in Medicine, I trained at the School of Neurology and got the international PhD at the same University. As visiting Clinical Research Fellow, I further trained at the Department of Neuroscience and Clinical Neurophysiology of the Newcastle University (UK). In 2013, I was selected for a Scientific Fellowship promoted by the European Federation of Neurological Societies (EFNS). From 2013 to October 2018, I worked as a Consultant Neurologist at the Oasi Research Institute–IRCCS in Troina (Italy), which is a Collaborating Center of the World Health Organization, and where now I currently hold the position of Chief of the Clinical Neurophysiology Research Unit. From 2015 to October 2018, I taught Neurology at the University of Enna (Italy), where I have recently come back to continue teaching activity. I have authored more than 160 publications in internationally-indexed peer-reviewed Journals and Conferences or Meetings, and I currently serve as Editor and invited Reviewer of several international Journals. More recently, I have obtained the Master of Science in Clinical Research and the National Scientific Qualification as Full Professor (procedure for the Italian University Professor recruiting, based on rigorous scientific qualification criteria).
