RITA PIZZI is Senior Researcher at the Department of Computer Science of the University of Milan. She had her MS in Physics and her PhD in Electronic Engineering. Her main interests involve computational intelligence methods and their applications to the biomedical field. In 2009 she developed a bionic creature connecting a network of human neural stem cells to a robot with a bidirectional ANN-driven interface. Currently she is developing a computational intelligence method to codify neural correlates of qualia. More details on her research activity and the list of publications can be found at the page http: //www.di.unimi.it/pizzi . MARIALESSIA MUSUMECI had her BS in Neurophysiology Techniques and her MS in Cognitive Science and Decision Making at the University of Milan.
