The Department of General Psychology at the University of Padua has inaugurated its new Integrated Psychology Laboratory, an innovative research facility funded by the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR) and the Departmental Development Project. This laboratory is particularly important for research and teaching, thanks to the integration of cutting-edge technologies that will allow researchers and students to conduct high-level studies.
The Integrated Psychology Laboratory is divided into three distinct environments: the hdEEG Laboratory, the Neurostimulation Laboratory, and the Movement Analysis Laboratory. These spaces have been designed to enable an in-depth study of cognitive functions and motor activity, using technologically advanced equipment.
In the hdEEG Laboratory, it will be possible to study brain activity both at rest and during the performance of cognitive tasks such as memory, attention, and language. Using 128 high-density sensors, researchers will be able to analyse the relationship between neural circuits and cognitive functions throughout all stages of life, both in typical and atypical or pathological conditions.
The Neurostimulation Laboratory offers the possibility to investigate corticospinal, electrical, cardiac, and muscular activity through techniques of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and percutaneous stimulation, combined with the recording of physiological indices. This combination of advanced technologies will allow a deeper understanding of the mechanisms underlying cognitive and motor functions.

Lastly, the Movement Analysis Laboratory is an innovative space dedicated to the scientific study of the body in motion. Using state-of-the-art technologies such as 3D motion capture, sensors, and video analysis systems, it will be possible to delve into the kinematic analysis of motor gestures in clinical, sports, and neuroscientific contexts. This will allow the evaluation of posture, coordination, and movement disorders with unprecedented precision.
Advanced technologies allow the detection of details that escape the human eye, such as subtle trajectories, micro-expressions, and early signs of cognitive decline, with a dual purpose: generating scientific knowledge and transforming it into tools for clinical practice, sports, and human-machine interaction. The opening of the new Neurostimulation Laboratory thus marks an important step towards more integrated and innovative neuroscientific research. "This specialised space allows us to study brain plasticity in a non-invasive way, combining transcranial magnetic stimulation and electrophysiological recordings, with unprecedented precision," says Luisa Sartori, head of the Movement Analysis Laboratory and the Neurostimulation Laboratory. "Understanding how the brain adapts to innovations, from the Neolithic era to digital technologies, helps us understand the past and predict future changes. The laboratory is an international interdisciplinary research centre and a training opportunity for students and young researchers, acting as a bridge between technology, culture, and neuroscience."
Giovanni Mento, head of the hdEEG Laboratory, also emphasises how the laboratory represents an evolution of the long tradition of psychophysiological research of the Department of General Psychology, thanks to the integration of new methodologies and logistical solutions. The equipment, in fact, allows for the integration of complex biometric data and offers a welcoming environment for study participants and their caregivers, which is fundamental when working with neurodiverse individuals or elderly people with motor and cognitive difficulties. As Giovanni Mento specifies, "For us, research is a human experience that enriches all those involved, as well as a moment of scientific significance."

The Department of General Psychology at the University of Padua has inaugurated its new Integrated Psychology Laboratory, an innovative research facility funded by the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR) and the Departmental Development Project. This laboratory is particularly important for research and teaching, thanks to the integration of cutting-edge technologies that will allow researchers and students to conduct high-level studies.
The Integrated Psychology Laboratory is divided into three distinct environments: the hdEEG Laboratory, the Neurostimulation Laboratory, and the Movement Analysis Laboratory. These spaces have been designed to enable an in-depth study of cognitive functions and motor activity, using technologically advanced equipment.
In the hdEEG Laboratory, it will be possible to study brain activity both at rest and during the performance of cognitive tasks such as memory, attention, and language. Using 128 high-density sensors, researchers will be able to analyse the relationship between neural circuits and cognitive functions throughout all stages of life, both in typical and atypical or pathological conditions.
The Neurostimulation Laboratory offers the possibility to investigate corticospinal, electrical, cardiac, and muscular activity through techniques of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and percutaneous stimulation, combined with the recording of physiological indices. This combination of advanced technologies will allow a deeper understanding of the mechanisms underlying cognitive and motor functions.

Lastly, the Movement Analysis Laboratory is an innovative space dedicated to the scientific study of the body in motion. Using state-of-the-art technologies such as 3D motion capture, sensors, and video analysis systems, it will be possible to delve into the kinematic analysis of motor gestures in clinical, sports, and neuroscientific contexts. This will allow the evaluation of posture, coordination, and movement disorders with unprecedented precision.
Advanced technologies allow the detection of details that escape the human eye, such as subtle trajectories, micro-expressions, and early signs of cognitive decline, with a dual purpose: generating scientific knowledge and transforming it into tools for clinical practice, sports, and human-machine interaction. The opening of the new Neurostimulation Laboratory thus marks an important step towards more integrated and innovative neuroscientific research. "This specialised space allows us to study brain plasticity in a non-invasive way, combining transcranial magnetic stimulation and electrophysiological recordings, with unprecedented precision," says Luisa Sartori, head of the Movement Analysis Laboratory and the Neurostimulation Laboratory. "Understanding how the brain adapts to innovations, from the Neolithic era to digital technologies, helps us understand the past and predict future changes. The laboratory is an international interdisciplinary research centre and a training opportunity for students and young researchers, acting as a bridge between technology, culture, and neuroscience."
Giovanni Mento, head of the hdEEG Laboratory, also emphasises how the laboratory represents an evolution of the long tradition of psychophysiological research of the Department of General Psychology, thanks to the integration of new methodologies and logistical solutions. The equipment, in fact, allows for the integration of complex biometric data and offers a welcoming environment for study participants and their caregivers, which is fundamental when working with neurodiverse individuals or elderly people with motor and cognitive difficulties. As Giovanni Mento specifies, "For us, research is a human experience that enriches all those involved, as well as a moment of scientific significance."
