Andrea Soddu is an Associate Professor at Western University, specializing in Medical Physics within the Brain Mind Institute. His research interests encompass the study of spontaneous brain activity through functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) and investigating global metabolism and structural connectivity using diffusion tensor imaging. His focus includes various patient disorders, including consciousness, hypnosis, anesthesia, tinnitus, and dementia. He has contributed significantly to the field with multiple publications, such as studies on software for blood-free parametric Patlak mapping using PET/MRI input functions, diagnostic developments for differentiating unresponsive wakefulness syndrome from minimally conscious state, and explorations of nociceptive response as a potential marker for consciousness in unresponsive patients. His innovative work forms part of the broader understanding of how neurological conditions affect brain function and activity.
