Serum Levels of miR-34a-5p, miR-30b-5p, and miR-140-5p Are Associated with Disease Activity and Brain Atrophy in Early Multiple Sclerosis
In recent years, research has focused on biomarkers as key tools to predict clinical outcomes and guide therapeutic decisions in Multiple Sclerosis (MS). MicroRNAs (miRs)-small non-coding RNA molecules that regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level-have emerged as promising biomarkers in MS due to their accessibility in biological fluids. This study investigates the role of specific serum miRs mainly involved in immune response regulation as potential prognostic biomarkers in MS...
Revisiting the automatic Fatou property of law-invariant functionals
We provide three simple and direct proofs of the automatic Fatou property of quasiconvex law-invariant functionals on bounded random variables. The key ingredient is Day's generalization of Hardy-Littlewood bounds to a finitely additive setting.
Optimal insurance design under limited liability
We study optimal demand for insurance in a classical expected utility setting where the insured party has limited liability and has access to three different types of progressively more restrictive contracts. At one end, with no restrictions on the indemnity schedule, it is optimal to fully insure certain losses while leaving others uninsured. At the other end, if indemnity schedules and retained losses are assumed to be increasing functions of the underlying loss, the optimal insurance policies...
Neural dynamics of visuospatial endogenous attention: Event-related optical signal evidence from posterior brain areas
Considerable research has been encouraged by the concept of two distinct human attention networks (i.e., a dorsal network, DAN, and a ventral network, VAN) for voluntary deployment of attention and the reorientation to unexpected events, respectively. Despite the general agreement about the main crucial nodes constituting the two networks, the specific contribution of each region and the interplay between the two systems required for flexible attentional control still need to be clarified. There...
The effect of age on the architecture of psychological and cognitive dimensions: a network perspective
Ageing involves changes across the life span in cognitive abilities, mental health, and personality traits. Although these domains are often studied separately, recent findings highlight their interdependence and dynamic interplay. To examine these relationships, we analysed data from the Human Connectome Project (HCP-Young and HCP-Aging datasets) divided into three age groups: Young (22-39; n = 230), Middle-aged (40-59; n = 242), and Older adults (60-79; n = 209). The interrelationships among 1...

Networking e InternazionalizzazioneL'ateneo promuove la presenza di ricercatori e docenti internazionali per attività di didattica e di ricerca attraverso specifici finanziamenti per la mobilità in ingresso degli ospiti internazionali.
Un Visiting Professor è un docente o ricercatore di alto livello proveniente da un'istituzione straniera, invitato per un periodo limitato a svolgere attività accademiche.
Annualmente vengono pubblicati i bandi "Visiting" ricompresi all'interno del Programma di internazionalizzazione di ateneo che finanziano soggiorni di ricerca e/o di didattica a Verona, oltre che l'attribuzione di interi insegnamenti a docenti internazionali. Inoltre, i Dipartimenti dispongono di appositi finanziamenti, finalizzati ad accrescere la dimensione internazionale della didattica all'interno dei Corsi di studio, anche attraverso la partecipazione di docenti provenienti da atenei europei ed extra-europei.
