About

Vincenzo Di Lazzaro is a distinguished clinical neurophysiologist and rehabilitation neuroscientist whose work sits at the intersection of brain stimulation, robotic rehabilitation, and neural interfacing. His research has fundamentally shaped how clinicians approach post-stroke motor recovery, particularly for upper limb impairment, by systematically investigating the synergistic potential of non-invasive brain stimulation techniques — including transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) — combined with robotic therapy. Di Lazzaro's most influential contribution is his authorship of the International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology's landmark TMS safety guidelines (2020), which has garnered over 1,470 citations and remains an essential reference for researchers and clinicians worldwide. Beyond brain stimulation, he has pioneered investigations into vagus nerve stimulation paired with robotic rehabilitation, advanced prosthetic embodiment in amputees, and proprioceptive feedback integration in upper limb prostheses. His randomized clinical trials and systematic reviews have helped establish evidence-based frameworks for neurorehabilitation. Across his body of work, Di Lazzaro has demonstrated a consistent commitment to translating neuroscientific insights into clinically meaningful therapies that restore function and quality of life for neurological patients.
