Ringpraktikum Neurosignale

What it is about

You will learn fundamental methods of NeuroEngineering in three practical modules: measurement and analysis of hearing-system biosignals, processing of EOG data including the implementation of a gaze-controlled beamformer, as well as multi-channel EEG recording and time-frequency analysis of event-related potentials. At the end you will be able to plan experiments, record biosignals, process them with MATLAB, and statistically evaluate the results.

What you will be able to do

• Understand theoretical foundations of neural responses to muscular signals and their measurement
• Perform multi-channel data acquisition and analysis (EMG, BERA, CAEP, EOG, EEG)
• Plan experiments for capturing event-related potentials
• Apply signal processing methods and robust information extraction with MATLAB
• Statistically analyze noisy multivariate neural data
• Document and present results

What the module consists of

• SelbststudiumPreparation for the practical exercises with written material
• Betreute Praktika (Tutorien, je Thema ein Betreuer)Conducting measurements, analysis and practical exercises; weekly meetings of 180 minutes
