Overview

Roberto Mai is affiliated with the University of Milan in Italy and has contributed extensively to research in medicine and neuroscience. Their work spans various subfields including cognitive neuroscience, psychiatry and mental health, pediatrics, perinatology and child health, cellular and molecular neuroscience, and surgery.

Their research primarily focuses on epilepsy, particularly epilepsy research and treatment, as well as electroencephalography (EEG) and brain-computer interfaces. Additional topics of emphasis include functional brain connectivity studies, neural dynamics and brain function, neuroscience and neuropharmacology research, fetal and pediatric neurological disorders, and pharmacological effects and toxicity studies.

Roberto Mai has published notable papers addressing diverse aspects of neurological disorders and epilepsy. Some recent publications include:

  • Electrical stimulation for seizure induction during SEEG exploration: a useful predictor of postoperative seizure recurrence?, 2020, Journal of Neurology Neurosurgery & Psychiatry
  • Seizure outcome after epilepsy surgery in tuberous sclerosis complex: Results and analysis of predictors from a multicenter study, 2021, Journal of the Neurological Sciences
  • Stereotactic electroencephalography in humans reveals multisensory signal in early visual and auditory cortices, 2020, Cortex
  • Temporal lobe epilepsy: A never-ending story, 2021, Epilepsy & Behavior
  • Early epilepsy surgery for non drug-resistant patients, 2022, Epilepsy & Behavior Reports

The frequent coauthors collaborating with Roberto Mai include Laura Tassi, Francesco Cardinale, Veronica Pelliccia, Francesca Gozzo, and Valeria Mariani. These collaborations highlight a network of researchers engaged in epilepsy and neurological disorder studies.

Roberto Mai's publications often appear in specialized journals such as Neurosurgery, Epilepsy & Behavior, Epilepsy & Behavior Reports, bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), and Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research).
