signal analysis
Dr.-Ing. Alexander von Lühmann
The IBS Lab develops miniaturized wearable neurotechnology and body-worn sensors, as well as machine learning methods for sensing signals from the brain and body under natural conditions of the everyday world. The group focuses on multimodal analysis of physiological signals in diffuse optics (e.g. fNIRS) and biopotentials (e.g. EEG). Working field: Independent and responsible research on wearable instruments and methods for robust neurotechnology in mobile applications. Design and implementation of innovative wearable and miniaturized opto-electronic hardware for multimodal brain-body imaging using diffuse optics and biopotentials. Development of multimodal machine-learning-based sensor fusion methods for signal analysis, signal decomposition and inference from wearable physiological sensor data.
Prof. Maxime Baud/Dr. Timothée Proix
A postdoc position is available under the shared supervision of Prof. Maxime Baud and Dr. Timothée Proix, who both specialize in quantitative neuroscience research. Together, they are running a three-year clinical trial involving patients with epilepsy who received a minimally invasive EEG device beneath the scalp for the chronic recording (months) of brain signals during wake and sleep. The postdoc will help with the analysis of massive amounts of EEG data, with a desire to build forecasting algorithms aiming at estimating the risk of seizures 24 hours in advance. The project lies at the interface between machine learning and EEG data analysis. The goal of the project is to develop machine learning algorithms to forecast seizures.

The independent research group 'Intelligent Biomedical Sensing (IBS)' is hiring for a PhD/PostDoc position. The IBS Lab develops miniaturized wearable neurotechnology and body-worn sensors, as well as machine learning methods for sensing signals from the brain and body under natural conditions of the everyday world. The group focuses on multimodal analysis of physiological signals in diffuse optics (e.g. fNIRS and DOT) and biopotentials (e.g. EEG). The job responsibilities include independent and responsible research on ML-based methods and models for robust neurotechnology in mobile applications, exploration of models and methods for physiology-informed multimodal brain imaging and single-trial analysis, development of multimodal machine learning-based methods for signal analysis, signal decomposition and identification of physiological transfer functions, scientific publishing, and teaching duties.
Lyle Muller
Postdoctoral and graduate research positions are available at Western University (London, ON) and the Fields Lab for Network Science (Toronto, ON). These positions will be supervised by Lyle Muller and involve collaborations with advanced methods of brain imaging (Mark Schnitzer, Stanford), neuroengineering (Duygu Kuzum, UCSD), theoretical neuroscience (Todd Coleman, Stanford), and neurophysiology of visual perception (John Reynolds, Salk Institute for Biological Studies). In collaboration with this multi-disciplinary team, researchers will bring together data science, computational science, and applied mathematics to understand spatiotemporal dynamics and computation in the circuits of neocortex. The project may include intermittent travel between labs to present results and facilitate collaborative work.
A modular, free and open source graphical interface for visualizing and processing electrophysiological signals in real-time
Portable biosensors become more popular every year. In this context, I propose NeuriGUI, a modular and cross-platform graphical interface that connects to those biosensors for real-time processing, exploring and storing of electrophysiological signals. The NeuriGUI acts as a common entry point in brain-computer interfaces, making it possible to plug in downstream third-party applications for real-time analysis of the incoming signal. NeuriGUI is 100% free and open source.
