Research

Research is based on emerging brain interface technologies and implantable neuroelectronics. We believe neuro-AI chips, in the future, will be able to read and understand the human thoughts—tiny devices that bridge the mind and the world. Over the past seven years, we have been focusing on neural recording, processing, and stimulation chips, from technology development to animal experiments, and recently human clinical trials.

Research

Researches on improving non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) technologies based on electromagnetic fields. Computational models to estimate the electric field distribution during transcranial magnetic (TMS), transcranial electric (TES) stimulation are integrated with neuronavigation systems to improve targeting approaches of specific brain circuits.

Tay Netoff

Research 

The NeuralNetoff lab is developing novel approaches for optimizing electrical stimulation to maximize outcomes for each patient. Our lab tests therapies and optimization algorithms in computational models and animal models. We also have a large translational component, testing these algorithms in humans with our clinical collaborators.
