The RehabCOVID project's main objective is to determine whether a combined intervention (cognitive stimulation, meditation and physical exercise) home and computerized, with a platform for rehabilitation of other pathologies, is effective in a patient population with persistent COVID.
The NAUTILUS project aims to define the cognitive, emotional and functional status of patients who have overcome COVID-19 (through a neuropsychological and the administration of different scales and questionnaires) and relate it to the severity of the disease (ICU admission, hospitalization without ICU, home, hotel or others). The project will also include a control group.
We are interested in efficacy of Cognitive Rehabilitation with information andcommunication technology (ICT) to prevent or slower cognitive impairment. Another area of research is in the cognitive architecture of self-control and genetic modulation of neural circuitry for emotion, motivation and decision-making. Our research interest are in behaviour and cognition particularly in obesity and reward system, healthy aging and in neuropsychiatric.
The Neuropsychology faculty in CST use our knowledge in the applied science of brain-behavior relationships to assess and diagnose patients with neurological, medical, neurodevelopmental and psychiatric conditions. In a neuropsychological assessment, brain function is evaluated by objectively testing memory, attention, executive functions and other cognitive skills. A detailed assessment of abilities is performed, and the pattern of strengths and weaknesses is used in important health care areas, such as diagnosis and treatment planning. In addition, assessment of personality, mood, anxiety and coping are also typically performed. Our neuropsychologists conduct the evaluation and make recommendations for treatment which may address the need for psychological or psychiatric intervention, driving ability, assessment of competency, need for supervision, occupational issues, and ability to return to work.
