Applied Neural Engineering for Brain Health

We focus on translational research, particularly with applications in monitoring and influencing different aspects of cognitive function. We have specific interests in sensory integrity, cognitive reserve, neurotechnology, individualized cognition, context-based biomarkers of cognitive function and hyper-scanning of multi-modal electrophysiology.

Our mission is to push the boundaries of research, aiming to bridge the gap between laboratory or clinical based research and everyday-life scenarios. We strive to work in collaboration with clinicians, patients, carers and researchers, finding the right path to translate knowledge into meaningful and targeted interventions fit for purpose and for individuals.

Our vision is to empower individuals on their brain health journey and provide them, and brain health professionals, with reliable insights into contextualized cognitive function. Brain health is a life-long journey to which we want to help you adapt along the way.

Research requires integrity, particularly when we delve in the sensitive realm of brain health. Our lab is committed to uphold high research integrity standards in terms of ethics and data protection. Every research endeavor in the lab is vetted and approved by institutional research boards at the University of Dublin and partner hospitals and institutions. We ensure transparency, and secure informed consent in our research activities with participants. We abide by the regulations of data protection provisions and ensure that our lab members receive training in research integrity practices and data protection requirements.
