Eu-Brain was born after the meeting between the mother, Ingrid Gallo, who came to know perinatal neurology when her baby was born preterm, and the neonatologist and the Director of Neonatal Pathology of the pediatric hospital G. Gaslini in Genoa, dr Luca Ramenghi, who is in love with child’s brain.
Luca had the idea to start an association for the promotion and research of perinatal neurological injuries since quite some time. This idea came out of his passion for the newborn’s brain and his understanding of the lack of research in this field.
In turn, Ingrid spent three months in the NICU hearing stories from mothers and fathers who have lived through tragic situations and who will in the future dedicate their heart and soul to their babies.
Eu-Brain aim is to support these parents in coping with these experiences and, above all, to promote scientific research aimed at providing better diagnostic and therapeutic tools for newborns with neurological injuries.
