Maria Sygidus, Msc

Ph.D. Student

ABOUT ME:

I graduated from the Medical University of Silesia, where I had the opportunity to conduct research in neuropsychopharmacology and learn from the very best - Professor Artur Pałasz. I was also a member of the Students Scientific Association in neurology and neurorehabilitation, guided by Agnieszka Gorzkowska, MD, PhD. Following that, I completed my internship at Elena Ziviani’s lab at the University of Padua, where the focus was on molecular aspects of neurodegenerative diseases.
With a background in neurobiology and radiologic technology, I will focus on predicting prognosis in asymptomatic subjects with multiple sclerosis-like brain lesions using cognitive testing and advanced magnetic resonance techniques (a project under the supervision of Maciej Juryńczyk, MD, PhD, Dsc, and Bartosz Kossowski, PhD).
