Department of Neurosurgery
Dr. Camila Bonin Pinto is a neuroscientist specializing in neuromodulation, neuro-rehabilitation, neurovascular physiology and biomarker analysis. She is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Neurosurgery at the University of Oklahoma Health Campus, where her work focuses on translational approaches to improve recovery after neurological injury.
Her research investigates how non-invasive brain stimulation techniques, including transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), can be used to enhance neuroplasticity and functional recovery. She has contributed to studies examining the mechanisms of brain stimulation and neurovascular coupling, including multimodal approaches that integrate electrophysiology and cerebral hemodynamic after stroke and other neurological conditions. Dr. Bonin Pinto also brings extensive expertise in biostatistics, quantitative analysis, and the interpretation of complex neurophysiological and clinical data.
Dr. Bonin Pinto is also involved in collaborative research at the University of Oklahoma focused on healthy brain aging, vascular contributions to cognitive impairment, and rehabilitation-focused neuroscience. Her work bridges mechanistic neuroscience and clinically relevant recovery strategies, with a particular emphasis on advancing non-invasive therapeutic interventions for patients with neurological disorders.
