Description
The human brain is a large-scale network the function of which depends on dynamic interactions between distributed regions. Magneto/electro-encephalography (M/EEG) provides a unique direct and noninvasive access to the electrophysiological activity of the whole brain, at the millisecond scale.
In this talk, Dr Hassan will introduce emergent methods used to track the dynamics of cortical brain connectivity from M/EEG sensors. He will discuss the possible applications of these methods in the field of neural engineering.
Finally, Dr Hassan will present the example of our start-up project aiming to transform these methods into products, such as the analysis of clinical trial data and the possibility of providing new diagnostic and therapeutic follow-up tools for some brain disorders.
Speaker(s)
Dr. Mahmoud Hassan is a research scientist in the field of brain signal processing at the University of Rennes1, France.
His group (www.mhhassan.com) focuses on the application of signal processing and data science on cognitive and clinical neuroscience.
