About
Roberta Battini is a leading pediatric neurologist whose research focuses on the surgical management of movement disorders, particularly deep brain stimulation (DBS) in children. Her most cited work, a 2024 multicentre study on unilateral DBS of the nucleus ventralis intermedius thalami (Vim) for post-traumatic tremor, represents a landmark contribution to a field with limited pediatric evidence. By demonstrating the safety and efficacy of this targeted intervention across multiple centers, Battini has provided critical clinical guidance for treating debilitating tremors in young patients—a population often excluded from neuromodulation trials. While her publication record is still building, this highly specialized study has already garnered attention for addressing a rare but severe condition. Battini’s work bridges pediatric neurology and functional neurosurgery, offering hope for children with refractory post-traumatic tremor. Her ongoing research continues to refine DBS protocols for developmental and acquired movement disorders, positioning her as an emerging expert in pediatric neuromodulation.
