Overview

Mariano Serrao is affiliated with Sapienza University of Rome in Italy. Their research focuses on medicine and neuroscience, with a pronounced emphasis on neurology, psychiatry and mental health, biomedical engineering, cognitive neuroscience, and physical therapy, sports therapy, and rehabilitation.

The primary topics covered in their work include migraine and headache studies, balance, gait, and falls prevention, muscle activation and electromyography studies, Parkinson's disease mechanisms and treatments, cerebral palsy and movement disorders, stroke rehabilitation and recovery, and vestibular and auditory disorders.

Serrao has contributed extensively to the scientific literature, publishing papers in several frequent publication venues such as Gait & Posture, Sensors, The Journal of Headache and Pain, Cephalalgia, and Frontiers in Neurology.

Recent notable papers include:

  • Machine Learning Approach to Support the Detection of Parkinson's Disease in IMU-Based Gait Analysis, 2022, Sensors
  • The Effect of Robotic Assisted Gait Training With Lokomat® on Balance Control After Stroke: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis, 2021, Frontiers in Neurology
  • An artificial neural network approach to detect presence and severity of Parkinson's disease via gait parameters, 2021, PLoS ONE
  • Consensus Paper: Ataxic Gait, 2022, The Cerebellum
  • Optimizing Rare Disease Gait Classification through Data Balancing and Generative AI: Insights from Hereditary Cerebellar Ataxia, 2024, Sensors

Their frequent co-authors include Gianluca Coppola, Stefano Filippo Castiglia, Alberto Ranavolo, Cherubino Di Lorenzo, and Chiara Abagnale.
