Overview

Alberto Priori is affiliated with the University of Milan in Italy and has contributed extensively to the fields of medicine and neuroscience. Their research portfolio includes a significant focus on neurology, with 264 publications dedicated to this subfield, as well as work in clinical psychology, cellular and molecular neuroscience, cognitive neuroscience, and psychiatry and mental health.

The main topics in Priori's research encompass neurological disorders and treatments, Parkinson's disease mechanisms and treatments, and transcranial magnetic stimulation studies. Additionally, their work addresses the long-term effects of COVID-19, COVID-19 and mental health, neuroscience and neural engineering, and genetic neurodegenerative diseases.

Several of Priori's recent papers reflect these thematic interests:

  • Long-Lasting Cognitive Abnormalities after COVID-19, 2021, Brain Sciences
  • First ultrastructural autoptic findings of SARS-Cov-2 in olfactory pathways and brainstem, 2020, Minerva Anestesiologica
  • One-year cognitive follow-up of COVID-19 hospitalized patients, 2022, European Journal of Neurology
  • The international European Academy of Neurology survey on neurological symptoms in patients with COVID-19 infection, 2020, European Journal of Neurology
  • Brainstem neuropathology in two cases of COVID-19: SARS-CoV-2 trafficking between brain and lung, 2021, Journal of Neurology

Priori has collaborated frequently with multiple researchers, including Roberta Ferrucci, Tommaso Bocci, Barbara Poletti, Vincenzo Silani, and Nicola Ticozzi.

Their work has been published in several venues, with the highest number of publications appearing in Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research), followed by Neurological Sciences, Brain Stimulation, European Journal of Neurology, and the Journal of the Neurological Sciences.

In addition to articles, Priori has contributed to book publications, such as a title published by Brazil Publishing eBooks titled "Ensino de história, diversidade e educação antirracista" in 2020.
