I was born in Catania (Italy) in 1982. I currently work as Senior Academic Researcher at the University of Catania (Italy). After graduation with honours in Medicine, I trained at the School of Neurology and I got the international PhD at the University of Catania (Italy). As visiting Clinical Research Fellow, I further trained at the Department of Neuroscience, Newcastle University (UK). In 2013 I was selected for a Scientific Fellowship promoted by the European Federation of Neurological Societies (EFNS). From 2013 to October 2018 I worked as Consultant Neurologist at the Oasi Research Institute – IRCCS in Troina (Italy), which is a Collaborating Center of the World Health Organization (WHO). From 2015 to October 2018, I taught Neurology at the Kore University of Enna (Italy). I have authored approximately 90 publications in international refereed Journals and Conferences/Meetings, and I also serve as Editor and invited Reviewer of several international Journals. More recently, I also obtained the Master of Science (Level I) in Clinical Research, as well as the National Scientific Qualification as Associate Professor (procedure for the Italian University Professor position recruiting, based on scientific qualification criteria).
I would like to become an Editor for a number of reasons. First, given its influential role within the international network in this topic, the Journal represents an outstanding chance to get connected with other clinicians and researchers from other countries. Second, an Editor can always be updated in a wide variety of “hot topics”, including cutting-edge topics and innovative therapies. Third, this position may provide the opportunity to advance scientific and academic career. Finally, as part of a dynamic international community, an Editor can reach a global audience to present any research or scientific achievement.
In conclusion, given my background and clinical/research interests, I would be honoured and delighted to join you as Editorial Board member and to contribute to the high scientific and academic level of Journal.
