About
Nicole Ziliotto is a leading researcher in the molecular mechanisms underlying multiple sclerosis (MS), with a particular focus on mitochondrial energetics, hemostasis, and rehabilitation outcomes. Her work bridges the gap between systemic biomarkers and functional recovery, offering novel insights into how personalized rehabilitation can modulate disease progression. In her highly cited 2020 study (18 citations), Ziliotto demonstrated that robot-assisted gait training and tailored exercise intensity significantly improve mitochondrial function in progressive MS patients, as evidenced by normalized pyruvate and lactate levels. This finding highlights the potential of precision rehabilitation to counteract bioenergetic failure in severely disabled individuals. Complementing this, her 2020 study on hemostasis inhibitors (10 citations) revealed that plasma levels of these molecules correlate with functional recovery during rehabilitation, suggesting a link between coagulation pathways and neurorepair. Ziliotto’s work is pivotal for developing biomarker-driven, personalized therapeutic strategies in MS, earning her recognition as a key contributor to translational neurorehabilitation research. Her studies underscore the importance of integrating molecular profiling into clinical practice to optimize recovery outcomes.
