DEVICE

HD-EEG recordings, combined with cognitive and motor assessment

Participants will undergo high-density EEG (HD-EEG) recordings under two conditions: at rest and while performing an upper limb motor task. The data obtained will be used to reconstruct source cortical activity and derive patterns of functional connectivity, using advanced neurophysiological analysis techniques, including the Avalanche Transition Matrix (ATM). In addition, patients will complete a neuropsychological assessment and participate in an intensive multidisciplinary rehabilitation program lasting 3 to 4 weeks, depending on age. The intervention aims to assess changes in the functional organization of the brain before and after treatment, as well as one year later, in order to explore potential biomarkers of disease progression.
