Aldo Casaleggio

Aldo Casaleggio was born in Genoa on 11/01/1959 and has graduated in electronic engineering on July 1983. He is researcher at the National Research Council since 1/2/1984. His fields of interest regards the study of methods for signal analysis (either in time and frequency domain, and methods for the quantification of deterministic chaos from time series analysis), and modeling.

Research interests:

- Analysis of cardiac signals and cardiac modeling (Principal investigator)
- Application in Telemedicine for Electrocardiographic Monitoring (Principal investigator)

Further collaborations:

- MIchael Hines (Yale University - USA)
- Antonio Tartaglione (Associazione Sistema Nervoso - La Spezia - Italy)
- Paolo Rossi (San Martino Hospital IRCCS - Genova - Italy)

Financial support:

- Associazione Sistema Nervoso
