Efficient data processing and reporting in stroke neuro-rehabilitation

Project goal is to optimise existing and develop new algorithms into an efficient system for signal pre-processing, data storage, analysis and visualization in motor-neurorehabilitation. This data is generated by stroke patients wearing motion sensors during their therapy sessions. Key endpoint of the project is to display real-time and longitudinal therapy results, which can aid therapists and patients. The results of the project will help develop a more efficient therapy and is a key part of a larger project that seeks to develop an intelligent and closed-loop neural stimulation system for stroke rehabilitation.

Mechanistic Evaluation of taVNS in Motor Adaptation for Stroke Rehabilitation

This study aims to evaluate the mechanisms by which transauricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) may facilitate motor learning and adaptation, focusing on reticulospinal tract (RST) activation. A set of assessments will be used to build a comprehensive neurophysiological profile, providing insights relevant to developing taVNS-based clinical interventions. In this role, you will engage in study design, data collection, and analysis, gaining hands-on experience in mechanistic neurophysiological research with direct clinical applications.
