Her research focuses on cognitive health, neuroscience, and mental well-being. She has co-authored numerous peer-reviewed publications examining these topics, with particular emphasis on the psychological impact of public health crises, cognitive impairments, and resilience mechanisms. Her work has been cited over 750 times, reflecting its influence in the field.
Dr. Solomou is a core member of the CAT-BRAIN project, which aims to create an innovative, interactive digital platform for cognitive rehabilitation. The platform is tailored for individuals experiencing cognitive difficulties, such as those with traumatic brain injury (TBI) or long COVID. She is actively involved in the development of standardized tools and structured intervention pathways to support cognitive care for older adults, caregivers, and marginalized populations.
She is also a key contributor to the BRAINN project (Brain Research Advancing Inclusive Neurorehabilitation and Neurodiversity), which investigates cognitive difficulties associated with long COVID. The project aims to understand the long-term neurological and psychological effects of COVID-19 and to develop accessible, evidence-based cognitive training programs. Dr. Solomou’s role includes clinical research, assessment tool development, and the creation of inclusive cognitive support strategies tailored to diverse neurocognitive profiles.
She is active on platforms like ResearchGate, where she shares her latest research, and she regularly contributes to both national and European projects that aim to bridge the gap between cutting-edge neuroscience and community-based mental health care.
