Emilio Bizzi

In Pisa, he performed seminal measurements of brain waves during sleep.

In 2006, he was elected as President of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

His research focuses on how the central nervous system translates brain messages signaling motor intent into muscle activation.

He also studies how motor control is affected by stroke damage and how computational analysis of motor control can be harnessed to improve rehabilitation methods for stroke patients.
