Our group has continued to work on our main overarching project the Migraine Adaptive Brain Program.
Migraine is complex hereditary brain disorder, which helps us understand how the brain communicates and adapts to change through the sensory processing of internal and external stimuli. Our mission is to study brain function by analyzing how neural networks adapt, respond and communicate with cognitive circuits and the environment through sensory networks, and to transfer this knowledge to diagnose, treat and prevent brain disorders, such as migraine. We also aim to develop evidence-based approaches to enhance individual abilities and non-cognitive skills, and improve brain sense technological devices, with the ultimate goal of promoting self-knowledge and globally increasing the quality of life. Once these functions are better understood we will improve individual abilities and develop therapeutic solutions.
