Viviana is an Associate Professor at Sapienza University of Rome and Director of CoSyNc Lab, a research laboratory based at Sapienza University of Rome and IRCCS Fondazione Santa Lucia.

By combining neuroscience, neuroimaging, virtual reality, wearable sensing, and artificial intelligence, she investigates the biological principles underlying action, embodiment, and human adaptation. Her research is at the frontiers of neuroscience and neurotechnologies. 

She is also the founder of Embodia, a technology transfer initiative born at Sapienza University, aimed at developing adapting neurotechnologies that use psychophysiological data to personalize rehabilitation and human-machine interaction.

Matteo is a Psychologist with a PhD in Neuroscience. He has a background in Virtual Reality (VR) and expertise on embodiment, presence, ownership, and agency. 

He is now working in combining VR with electrophysiological techniques such as EEG, EMG, and GSR.

Cristina received her P.h.D. in  in Morphogenesis and Tissue Engineering from the Sapienza University of Roma. She is currently a Reserarch Fellow. 

Her research is focused on resting state and task-evoked functional connectivity using fMRI data  in normal participants and subjects with upper-limb amputation.

Simona received her master’s degree in Cognitive Neuroscience and Psychological Rehabilitation from the Sapienza University of Rome. She is currently a Ph.D student, gaining experience with virtual reality, EEG, and fMRI. 

She is currently focusing on the effects of the TMS on major depressive disorder.

Aurelia received her master's degree in Applied Experimental Psychological Sciences from Bicocca University of Milan. She is currently a Phd student in Psychology and Cognitive Sciences at Sapienza. 

Her research is focused on integration of tactile and motor system, studying behavioral and electrophysiological data.

Adriano received his MSc in Cognitive Neuroscience and Rehabilitation from Sapienza University of Rome. 

His current research focuses on investigating dynamic changes in brain activity and functional connectivity during the observation of both common and uncommon movements, using high-density EEG 

Francesco is a physicist and neuroscientist with expertise in functional neuroimaging, brain connectivity, and computational neuroscience. His research focuses on the dynamic organization of large-scale brain networks and the relationship between intrinsic brain activity and behavior. 

At CoSyNc Lab, he contributes to the development of theoretical frameworks and analytical methods for studying spontaneous brain activity, adaptive behavior, and brain–environment interactions, providing expertise in neuroimaging, network neuroscience, and data-driven modeling.

Marco is a Physiotherapist with a Ph.D. in Human Movement and Sport Sciences. He has expertise in dynamic balance assessment and treating patients with vestibular and neurological disorders. He is studying the neurophysiological correlates in patients with balance and gait disorders during dynamic tasks. 

At CoSyNc Lab, he contributes to research on gait, balance, and motor control in neurological populations, integrating clinical, biomechanical, and neurophysiological approaches to support translational research and neurorehabilitation.

Daniele received his master's degree in Biomedical Engineering from the Sapienza University of Roma. 

At CoSyNc Lab, he contributes to the integration of low-cost sensorized matrices into the laboratory's neurotechnology platforms, supporting the development of scalable and accessible solutions for human–machine interaction. He also collaborates with the lab's startup initiatives, bridging engineering, neuroscience, and technology transfer to promote the development of innovative human-centered technologies.
