Programação

Complex brain dynamics for brain computer interfaces - Prof. Slawomir Nasuto / University of Reading (Reino Unido)

Prof. Slawomir Nasuto received an MSc in Mathematics and a PhD in Cybernetics. He leads the Brain Embodiment Laboratory (BEL), an interdisciplinary research group within the School of Biological Sciences (University of Reading), focusing on neuroengineering and cognitive neuroscience, alongside complex science approaches to information processing in the brain. His research on phase synchronisation, functional connectivity and complex evolving networks informs interrogating cognitive processes and the nervous system. He applies these approaches in brain computer interfaces (BCI), neurofeedback and neurorehabilitation.

 

Harnessing VR and AI for neurotherapy in Parkinson's disease - Prof. Sami Rahman / University of Reading (Reino Unido)

Sami Rahman is a Computational Psychologist and Data Professional pursuing a part-time PhD at the University of Reading. He serves as the Director of Data at Hypebeast and holds additional roles as a Non-Executive Director at Confinity AI and a Trustee at the For Baby's Sake Trust. Sami's academic background includes an Advanced Diploma in IT Systems Analysis and Design, an MSc in Countering Organised Crime and Terrorism, and a BSc (Hons). He investigates the symbiotic relationship between artificial and human intelligence, virtual reality gaming and therapy, and the study of Parkinson's and motor neuron diseases. 

 

Advances in wearable technology and machine learning: predicting migraine onset, exam stress, sepsis, and enhancing rehabilitation - Prof. Vytautas Abromavičius / Vilnius Tech University (Lituânia)

Prof. Vytautas Abromavičius received his Bachelor's degree in Electronics Engineering, and both his Master’s and Ph.D. in Electronics Engineering. He investigates wearables and heart rate monitoring for subjective and objective measurements, Human Pose Estimation for rehabilitation purposes, signal processing and deep learning. Since 2015, he has served as an Assistant Professor, and since 2022, as an Associate Professor with the Department of Electronic Systems at Vilnius Tech University. In 2023, he was appointed Vice-Dean for International Affairs at the Faculty of Electronics.
