Ten of our PhD students represented the department at the Motoneuron Conference in Newfoundland, showcasing their work on motor neuron research. The team contributed with multiple posters, two oral presentations and Prof. Alessandro Del Vecchio also hosted a panel, bringing our expertise to the moto...
Our prestigues ERC Proof of Concept grant "PlayAgain" just started.
For this we are developing a minimally invasive neuromotor interface for children with paralyzed hands following pediatric stroke or hemispherotomy. Building on our discoveries of spared motor neuron activity in paralysis, we wil...
Our latest paper reveals high neural specificity in how motor units are recruited for single- and multidigit hand tasks. By combining 3D hand kinematics with high-density EMG recordings, the study shows that only a small fraction of motor units are active across both task types, highlighting the pre...
Our open-source MyoGestic framework, designed as an assisting tool for researchers to decode movement intention using a new wearable sEMG bracelet, has been published in Science Advances. This milestone highlights the potential of our technology to transform neurorehabilitation and opens new avenues...
Our recent symposium in Austria brought the team together to strengthen collaboration and exchange ideas. Everyone presented their latest research and discussed current challenges, receiving valuable feedback and fresh perspectives from the group.
Yesterday, our research group took a break from experiments and papers to celebrate the season together at the beautiful Erlangen Christmas Market. It was a wonderful opportunity to relax, enjoy some mulled wine (Glühwein!), delicious treats, and good company as we wrapped up the year.
We’d like ...
We're delighted to share that Prof. Dr. Alessandro Del Vecchio, the head of our N-squared Lab at FAU, has secured a significant 1.6 million euros in funding from the German Research Foundation (DFG) for his exciting Emmy Noether project, DeMOTUS!
What's DeMOTUS all about? Prof. Del Vecchio and hi...
We were very excited to have the opportunity to present GraspAgain to our Federal President Steinmeier, who visited our laboratory on Tuesday, November 7th.
We congratulate Vlad Cnejevici on completing his master's thesis titled "Comparative Analysis and Optimization of AI models for Hand Movement Estimation using HD-sEMG"!
Estimating the hand position reliably from surface Electromyography signals is of utmost importance to any prosthesis or exoskel...
