Pasquale Calabrese

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pasquale Calabrese born February 27, 1961 in Naples is an Italian university professor of clinical neuroscience at the University of Basel , Faculty of Psychology, Department of Molecular and Cognitive Neuroscience. He is a brain researcher , experimental neurologist and medical neuropsychologist .

Life

From 1983 to 1989 Calabrese studied psychology, medicine, biology and philosophy at the Universities of Konstanz University , Zurich , Ruhr University Bochum and Bielefeld . In 1991 he received a diploma in psychology from the University of Konstanz. In 1997 he was majoring in clinical neuropsychology and a minor in clinical neurology for Dr. rer. nat. PhD. In 1999 he was licensed as a psychotherapist (KVT) and entered in the medical book of the Westphalia-Lippe Medical Association. In the same year, he was appointed visiting professor in neurosciences at the International Institute of Genetics and Biophysics (IIGB) of the Italian research community. In 2004 Calabrese completed his habilitation at the Medical Faculty of the University of Bochum and received the Venia Legendi in experimental neurology and medical neuropsychology.

From 1991 to 2008 he was head of the Department of Neuropsychology and Behavioral Neurology and Director of the Memory Clinic at the University Clinic Bochum-Langendreer . From 2010 he worked in the same position at the Neurozentrum Südschweiz, Lugano.

Since 2011 he has been Professor of Clinical Neuroscience at the University of Basel, where he has been Head of the Neuropsychology and Behavioral Neurology Working Group at the Department of Molecular and Cognitive Neurosciences and Head of the Neuropsychological Department at the MS Center of the University Hospital since 2013.

Clinical-scientific work

Calabrese's clinical research includes the basic neurobiology as well as the behavioral and neuropsychological diagnostics of neuropsychiatric patients. In addition to group studies, he pursues an idiographic - constructivist - neurevolutive approach in his individual clinical studies and essays .

As a long-time employee of Hans J. Markowitsch , he was significantly involved in the fundamental clinical studies to research the functional-neuroanatomical and neuropsychological peculiarities of retrograde amnesias after brain damage .

In addition, the systematic recording and documentation of cognitive dysfunctions in patients with Parkinson's disease , the basics and patterns of cognitive disturbances in patients with multiple sclerosis and other neuropsychiatric diseases as well as stress-related functional disorders are part of his clinical research area. Calabrese is a co-developer of neuropsychological screening methods and test batteries that have found application in clinical practice. These include DemTect for examining patients with dementia in clinical practice, MUSIC, for recording the core cognitive deficit in multiple sclerosis, PANDA for examining and recording cognitive disorders in Parkinson's disease, as well as the translation and validation of the German version of the revised Wechsler Memory- Scale (WMS-R) for recording memory disorders in people with brain damage

The neuropsychological-behavioral neurological monitoring of patients with brain tumors during the awake craniotomy as well as the expert recording and assessment of damage-related changes in behavior are also part of his clinical specialty.

As part of his psychotherapeutic work, Calabrese developed the method of "mind-posing", which he teaches in seminars and workshops.
