About
Dr. Massimo Caulo is a leading figure in neuroradiology and cognitive neuroscience, whose research bridges advanced neuroimaging with clinical applications. His work primarily focuses on understanding how the human brain adapts to injury and technological intervention, particularly in the context of sensorimotor plasticity and prosthetic use. A landmark contribution is his pioneering study on brain reactions to sensorized hand prostheses in amputees, which provided the first multimodal evidence—combining neurophysiology and neuroimaging—that prolonged training with a bidirectional prosthesis induces chronic reorganization of sensorimotor brain areas. This work, cited over 10 times, has profound implications for neurorehabilitation and the design of brain-computer interfaces. Dr. Caulo’s research also extends to functional MRI methodology and the neural bases of perception and action. His achievements include advancing our understanding of cortical plasticity, with his findings informing both clinical practice and the development of more intuitive prosthetic technologies. For students and researchers, his work exemplifies how cutting-edge imaging can unravel the brain’s remarkable capacity for adaptation.
