As described in Wikipedia:Notability_(people), Luciano Fadiga's notability is based on the following criterion:

  • Published authors who received multiple independent reviews and awards for his work

Luciano Fadiga was the first to find some evidence that humans have a system analogous to that found in monkey brains, when he measured the excitability of particular muscles in the hand.
