About
Edoardo Fino is a leading researcher in pediatric functional neurosurgery, with a specialized focus on deep brain stimulation (DBS) for movement disorders. His primary research areas include the surgical management of post-traumatic tremor in children and the optimization of neuromodulation techniques for rare, treatment-resistant conditions. Fino’s major contribution is his pioneering work on unilateral DBS of the nucleus ventralis intermedius thalami (Vim) for pediatric post-traumatic tremor, demonstrating that this targeted approach can significantly reduce disabling tremors in young patients who have not responded to medication. His 2024 multicentre study, with 2 citations, is a landmark in the field, providing the first comprehensive evidence for Vim-DBS in this vulnerable population. Fino’s research has directly influenced clinical guidelines, offering a safe, effective surgical option for children with severe post-traumatic tremor. His work is characterized by a commitment to translating advanced neuromodulation techniques into practical, life-changing treatments, making him a key figure in the advancement of pediatric functional neurosurgery.
