Research summary
AI-generated

Francesco Sammartino's work focuses on neurosurgical treatments for movement and neurological disorders, including deep brain stimulation, spinal cord stimulation, and focused ultrasound therapy for conditions such as Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, epilepsy, and chronic pain. Their research combines clinical outcome studies with neuroimaging (MRI, diffusion tensor imaging) and electrophysiology (recording from single neurons in the thalamus and subthalamic nucleus) to understand and improve these interventions. A number of case reports on unrelated general surgical and oncological conditions also appear in the record.
