We focus on the development of knowledge and tools for treatment of neurologically disabled (amputees and diabetics) persons, based on the deep understanding achieved through the computational modeling of nervous system interaction with electric field. To achieve these goals we are acting in an extremely interdisciplinary environment, composed of work in hardware, physics, programming, physiological and clinical expertise.
In particular we develop mechatronic systems directly interfacing the environment with the residual nervous system, and we investigate different type of coding (“neuronal language”) through direct injection of the current above amputation or damage. We also work closely with collaborators in the animal and human testing of these systems. Main application areas are the fields of assistive devices, rehabilitation and bioelectronics medicine.

The Lab is headed by Prof. Dr. Stanisa Raspopovic
