Gianluca Susi is an electronics engineer. He received a PhD in sensor and learning systems engineering from the University of Rome "Tor Vergata" in 2012.
Gianluca Susi was adjunct professor of Electrical Circuits at the University of Rome "Tor Vergata", and today he is senior researcher at the UPM-UCM Laboratory of Cognitive and Computational Neuroscience.
His research activity is currently focused on the simulation of spontaneous brain network activity, using both spiking neural networks and neural mass models, to understand and reproduce connectivity transitions during the progression of neurodegenerative diseases.

Other research interests

Data analysis

Research on and application of data analysis methods in our laboratory focuses on functional connectivity, preprocessing methods, classification, source reconstruction and Bayesian models. We have developed the publicly available connectivity toolbox HERMES.
