Electrophysiology and electric field simulation

In this study, we want to use electric field simulation based on stimulations performed during electrode implantation surgery looking for correlations between electric field and adverse effects encountered during stimulation test.

In collaboration with Prof Simone Hemm-Ode, Dr Ashesh Shah, Daniela Pison (PhD student), Dorian Vogel (PhD student) and Prof Erik Schkommodau | School of Life Sciences, Institute for Medical and Analytical Technologies, FHNW University.

In collaboration with Prof Karin Wårdell and Dr Fabiola Alonso | Department of Biomedical Engineering, Linköping University, Linköping, Sweeden.
