Development of a biomimetic neural sensory feedback for neuroprosthetic applications ETH Zurich Neuroengineering Lab Peripheral intraneural stimulation can provide tactile information to amputees. However, efforts are still necessary to identify encoding strategy eliciting percepts that are felt as both natural and effective for prosthesis control. Here we want to develop neural modulation strategies able to improve the naturalness and efficacy of stimulation to convey sensory information to trans-femoral amputees implanted with intraneural electrodes.

Unveil the neural mechanisms behind the adaptation to neurostimulation ETH Zurich Neuroengineering Lab In this project we want to unveil mechanisms behind the neural adaptation that occurs during intraneural neuromodulation and to emulate the neural process to prevent, in the real-time system.

Restoring motor and SENSory functIons with a wearaBLE sensorized hand EXOskeleton (SENSIBLE-EXO) ETH Zurich Neuroengineering Lab In this project, we propose a real-time sensorized hand-exoskeleton that combines the tenoexo (RElab) and the sensory feedback based on TENS (NeuEngLab) systems. The integrated robotic system will be able to provide the user with assisted grasping force control via tenoexo and with fine grip-force f Electrical Engineering, Rehabilitation Engineering, Robotics and Mechatronics Master Thesis
