About
Silvia Marino’s research lies at the intersection of neurorehabilitation, functional neuroimaging, and robotic-assisted therapy, with a focus on understanding how the brain reorganizes after injury. Her most cited work, a 2023 study on neural plasticity changes induced by motor robotic rehabilitation in stroke patients (33 citations), demonstrates how functional neuroimaging can reveal the neurofunctional indicators of motor recovery, moving beyond traditional clinical scales to map the brain’s adaptive responses. Marino has also explored the impact of robotic rehabilitation on functional connectivity in multiple sclerosis (2019, 10 citations), showing that such therapy not only improves motor function but also enhances quality of life by promoting cortical reorganization. Extending her expertise to surgical training, she investigated brain activation patterns during minimally invasive, robotic, and open surgery (2020, 3 citations), proposing a model to analyze how different techniques influence the learning curve. Her work bridges clinical rehabilitation and surgical education, offering evidence that robotic systems can drive measurable neural changes. With a career dedicated to translating neuroimaging insights into practical rehabilitation strategies, Marino’s research continues to shape how clinicians harness technology for recovery and skill acquisition.
