Full Professor

Mauro Ursino is a Full Professor at the Department of Electrical, Electronic, and Information Engineering, University of Bologna, Italy. He has served as an associate editor and member of the editorial board for several international journals. He has been responsible for several research grants on physiological modelling and neurocomputation. His research activity is mainly focused on mathematical modeling of complex physiological systems. He has been working on cardiovascular regulatory mechanisms and cerebral autoregulation for many years. At present, his research interests are primarily focused on computational neuroscience through biologically inspired neural networks. In this field, he is working on modeling multisensory integration in the brain, the neural substrate of semantic memory, alterations in the basal ganglia and levodopa pharmacokinetics in Parkinson's disease, and the role of brain oscillations in cognition. Recently, he has also been working on the estimation of brain connectivity from EEG data in healthy and pathological conditions (autism spectrum disorders, Schizophrenia, and fear conditioning). His current research activity includes over 350 publications, including more than 200 papers in international journals and 25 in international books.
