Bioinformatics, robotics and nanotechnology
Field of study: Biotechnology in Health
Description: Computer techniques applied to the processing of biological signals (muscular signals - sEMG, potential cortico-retina: electrooculographic signals - EOG, brain signals - EEG and temperature signals by dilation of the blood vessels of the skin). Upper limb myoelectric prosthesis (sEMG); Rehabilitation robotics; Robotic walker driven by motor intention (EEG signals); Robotic telepresence (EEG signals); Robot interaction with children with autism (EEG and facial flushing). Development of new routes of synthesis of metallic nanoparticles for biomedical application as diagnostic sensors for organic molecules, drug loading and antigens, as well as antibacterial treatment.
