MSCA Doctoral Researcher (Develop methods to assess the brain state spatiotemporal interference stimulation)

Job Description

Project title: Develop methods to assess the neuronal system (brain) state and the effect of the spatiotemporally steered stimulation on it for the control strategies of the spatiotemporal interference stimulation

Project tasks and objectives:

The BRAINET is an EU Horizon Europe MSCA project where we aim to augment deep brain stimulation with electric field spatio-temporal interference stimulation. We aim to beneficially influence therapeutic regions deep in the brain without requiring deep electrodes. BRAINET sets out to develop skull implantable stimulation hubs forming a communication network for 3D targeting by self-organization, providing semantic information transfer and synchronization, and thus enabling self-adjusting therapeutic stimulation. The stimulation hubs will be powered by novel magneto-electrical transducer stacks, driven by slowly alternating magnetic fields from the outside and will perform adjustable frequency stimulation...
