Project

Soft and flexible technologies for electrical and optical modulation of the epileptic brain.

Spatial and temporal targeting of dedicated brain regions is indispensable when treating brain disorders like epilepsy. This project develops a technology platform to bring targeted neuromodulation to epilepsy patients. Soft implantable probes will record epileptic activity and trigger a novel form of therapeutic neuromodulation based on light pulse delivery, controlled by a flexible electronic subcutaneous interface patch.
