Overview

Alessandro E. P. Villa is affiliated with the University of Lausanne in Switzerland and has an extensive research portfolio primarily concentrated in the fields of neuroscience and medicine. Their work spans multiple subfields, notably cognitive neuroscience, artificial intelligence, psychiatry and mental health, otorhinolaryngology, and radiology, nuclear medicine, and imaging.

Their research topics cover a range of subjects including EEG and brain-computer interfaces, neural and behavioral psychology studies, neural dynamics and brain function, functional brain connectivity studies, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), head and neck cancer studies, and optical imaging and spectroscopy techniques.

Recent publications by Villa include:

  • Attention Networks in ADHD Adults after Working Memory Training with a Dual n-Back Task, 2020, Brain Sciences
  • Electrophysiological Markers of Fairness and Selfishness Revealed by a Combination of Dictator and Ultimatum Games, 2022, Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience
  • On the semantics of ecoacoustic codes, 2023, Biosystems
  • A Review of Immunotherapy for Head and Neck Cancer, 2024, Journal of Dental Research
  • Financial Burden of Dental Care Among Patients With Head and Neck Cancer, 2024, JAMA Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery

Villa has published in various frequently appearing venues, including:

  • Brain Sciences
  • Brainiacs Journal of Brain Imaging And Computing Sciences
  • Biosystems
  • JAMA Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery
  • Scientific Reports

Collaborative work is reflected in frequent co-authorship with researchers such as Alessandra Lintas, Manon Jaquerod, Michel Bader, Yoshiyuki Asai, and Sarah K. Mesrobian.

In addition to research articles, Villa has contributed to book publications, including a chapter in "Advances in Cognitive Neurodynamics (VII)" published by Springer Nature in 2021.
