Giacomo Bertazzoli, PhD
Postdoctoral Research Fellow

Education History:
Ph.D., Cognitive and Brain Sciences, CIMeC – University of Trento (Italy)
MSc., Cognitive Sciences, CIMeC – University of Trento (Italy)
B.Sc., Pharmaceutical Biotechnology, University of Milan, Italy

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Pharmaceutical Biotechnology from the University of Milan and a Graduate degree in Cognitive Neuroscience from the University of Trento. At the Berenson-Allen Center for Noninvasive Brain Stimulation, I apply my expertise in TMS and EEG analysis to explore how brain excitability is modified in different pathological states. My research follows a multimodal approach, combining advanced neuroimaging and brain stimulation techniques to better understand neurodegeneration.

Personal Interests/Hobbies:
I like hiking and anything outdoors. I like reading Asimov. I love to combine the two.

Personal Goals:
My ultimate goal is to uncover how Alzheimer’s disease affects our conscious experience and contribute to breakthroughs in understanding the link between neurodegenerative disorders and consciousness.
