Nominated by Amandine Regnier, Coma Science Group, GIGA Consciousness, University of Liège, Belgique

 

"Despite his young age, Paolo has already acquired the greatest (according to me) qualities to become soon an excellent and independent researcher. Indeed, he is very curious, patient, persistent, and a hard-worker. On top of that, he is humble and ALWAYS ready to help his colleagues (even if he knows he won't have rewards or benefits). This is THE colleague you want to have in your team, also because he is often in a good mood (and his good mood can be contagious!) and making jokes when we are down. He can also easily find the appropriate words to motivate the team! He is a lab hero."

Nominated by Lynn Banda, Coma Science Group, ULiège, Belgium

 

"Paolo is a rare find and a very talented scientist. As one of his PhD advisors, I can testify that Paolo is smart, curious, critical, highly motivated and hard working. He received many awards, honours and fellowships (see for example his latest one https://mindscience.org/2022-competition/). Beyond these excellent academic abilities, Paolo has great social and communication skills. He is helpful to the team, creative, fun, kind, reliable and mature, making him a highly pleasant person to work with. On top of this, his research work is by far outstanding, innovative and highly relevant in the field of coma and related disorders of consciousness: treating patients with psychedelics! He truly deserves to be the 2022 Lab Hero of the Coma Science Group!"
