Research Interests

I am interested in studying how new technologies could be applied in neuropsychological rehabilitation. The widespread diffusion of new technologies could offer opportunities to the development of new and different rehabilitation approaches. More in specific the primary focus of my research is the development and efficacy evaluation of a software of 35 cognitive exercises for tablets.
