Outline of Research at the Start

Non-invasive bioelectronics uses safe electrical pulses to influence nerves activity and may offer new treatments for neurological disorders. Using this technology could lead to new ways of treating neurological disorders. This project builds computer models to study how combining signals in time and space can achieve more precise, targeted stimulation than current methods.
