Maurizio MATTIA is a Senior Researcher at Istituto Superiore di Sanità (Italian Institute of Health, Rome) and member of the teaching board of the PhD in Bioinformatic and Computational Biology at the Sapienza Univ. of Rome. From 2019 to 2024 he served as adjunct professor of Neural Networks at the Dept. of Physics of Sapienza university. His research activity aims at bridging the gap between theory and experiments on cortical network dynamics within the framework of theoretical physics and computational/systems neuroscience. He published more than 60 journal papers (h-index: 24, Scopus; 28, Google Scholar), is associate and guest editors of sever peer-reviewed journals and supervised about 30 laurea (MSc, BSc) and PhD theses. As principal investigator, he received funding from European Commission under Horizon 2020 (Human Brain Project) and NextGenerationEU (EBRAINS-Italy, MNESYS). As Principal Investigator, he received funding from the European Commission programs Horizon 2020 (Human Brain Project) and NextGenerationEU (EBRAINS-Italy and MNESYS).
