Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Social psychology

Cosimo Urgesi spends much of his time researching Transcranial magnetic stimulation, Neuroscience, Motor system, Mirror neuron and Cognitive psychology. He combines subjects such as Extrastriate body area, Communication, Visual processing, Facilitation and Motor cortex with his study of Transcranial magnetic stimulation. His work on Neuroimaging as part of general Neuroscience research is often related to Premotor cortex and Trait, thus linking different fields of science.

His Motor system research includes elements of Neural correlates of consciousness, Electromyography and Motor resonance. His Cognitive psychology research incorporates themes from Neural activity and Perception. His study in Perception is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cognition and Social neuroscience.

His most cited work include:

  • Action anticipation and motor resonance in elite basketball players (690 citations)
  • Representation of body identity and body actions in extrastriate body area and ventral premotor cortex (232 citations)
  • Mapping Implied Body Actions in the Human Motor System (214 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His scientific interests lie mostly in Cognitive psychology, Perception, Transcranial magnetic stimulation, Neuroscience and Cognition. His work carried out in the field of Cognitive psychology brings together such families of science as Context, Autism, Visual perception and Mental image. Cosimo Urgesi has included themes like Eating disorders, Psychological research, Developmental psychology, Anticipation and Beauty in his Perception study.

The concepts of his Transcranial magnetic stimulation study are interwoven with issues in Extrastriate body area, Communication, Motor cortex, Facilitation and Motor system. His work in Facilitation covers topics such as Motor resonance which are related to areas like Electromyography. The study incorporates disciplines such as Rehabilitation and Facial expression in addition to Cognition.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cognitive psychology (52.46%)
  • Perception (35.25%)
  • Transcranial magnetic stimulation (32.79%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Cognitive psychology (52.46%)
  • Cognition (22.13%)
  • Perception (35.25%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Cosimo Urgesi mainly focuses on Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Perception, Rehabilitation and Prior probability. His studies in Cognitive psychology integrate themes in fields like Context, Stimulus, Association, Autism and Social cognition. His Cognition study combines topics in areas such as Audiology, Body schema, Facial expression, Clinical psychology and Transcranial direct-current stimulation.

His research on Perception often connects related areas such as Transcranial magnetic stimulation. The subject of his Transcranial magnetic stimulation research is within the realm of Neuroscience. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance, Physical medicine and rehabilitation and Neuropsychology.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Non-invasive Brain Stimulation for the Rehabilitation of Children and Adolescents With Neurodevelopmental Disorders: A Systematic Review. (23 citations)
  • Contextual priors do not modulate action prediction in children with autism. (11 citations)
  • Cerebellar contribution to emotional body language perception: a TMS study. (10 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Cognition
  • Neuroscience
  • Social psychology

Cosimo Urgesi mostly deals with Cognitive psychology, Cognition, Rehabilitation, Perception and Autism. In most of his Cognitive psychology studies, his work intersects topics such as Self. His Cognition research includes themes of Acquired brain injury and Clinical psychology.

As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Rehabilitation, narrowing it down to issues related to the Physical medicine and rehabilitation, and often Transcranial magnetic stimulation, Tourette syndrome, Transcranial direct-current stimulation, Autism spectrum disorder and Brain stimulation. Cosimo Urgesi interconnects Context and Prior probability, Bayesian probability, Bayes' theorem in the investigation of issues within Perception. The various areas that Cosimo Urgesi examines in his Autism study include Interpersonal communication, Context based, Stimulus, Action observation and Attention switching.
