🧠 I'm delighted to share that our book on #BCI has now been officially released 🎉 store.ioppublishing.org/page…
It brings together contributions from an outstanding group of researchers and practitioners, offering an end-to-end perspective on BCI's. #Neuroengineering #EEG
🚀🧠Thrilled that our NEURONAUT project was selected by @ESA & @portugalspace under PROSSE'25! We’ll develop adaptive BCIs to enhance astronaut–robot collaboration and study brain function in microgravity during parabolic flights on the A310 Zero-G @istecnico @laseeb_isr
🏆 🚀 Os projetos NEURONAUT, do @ISR_Lisboa do @istecnico, e U-SANS, do @inegi_portugal, são os vencedores do #PROSSE25, programa da @portugalspace que financia, este ano, os dois projetos de investigação em microgravidade no valor total de 100 mil euros⬇️

Can priming embodiment before VR-based BCI training boost motor imagery performance?
🧠A new study found that embodiment induction increases the Sense of Embodiment (SoE), but it's real-time VR feedback during MI-BCI training that drives performance gains.

📣New paper out! ‘When embodiment matters most: a confirmatory study on VR priming in motor imagery BCI’ Results suggest in-task embodied feedback is key — and that individual differences matter: doi.org/10.3389/fnhum.2025.1… 🧠 #VR #embodiment #EEG #BCI #noisysproject

Nice study on EEG-based action anticipation with #LiveAmp & #actiCAP. Motor imagery used to predict movement before it happens with data from 2 experiments 2 different robots. Deep learning achieved >80% accuracy & pilot experiment validated the findings. doi.org/10.3389/fnbot.2024.1…
Happy to have chaired the special session on #AI-driven #BCI with #VR/AR at the #IEEEAIxVR🎉Congratulations to all participants for their outstanding work, and a special shoutout to my student Shay Englander for the presentation of her work 🧠@laseeb_isr @ISR_Lisboa @istecnico
📢 New research: "Multimodal mapping of spatial attention for unilateral spatial neglect in #VR: a proof of concept study using #eyetracking and mobile #EEG", in collaboration with @negatoscope at @laseeb_isr /@ISR_Lisboa link.springer.com/article/10…
Congratulations to my PhD student Rodrigo Vieira (co-supervised with Plinio Moreno - VisLab), for his latest work in #Neurorobotics #EEG #BCI #HRI🧠 🦾, @laseeb_isr @ISR_Lisboa @istecnico : frontiersin.org/journals/neu… #noisysproject
Happy to present today at the "Mind Meets Machine" series by the Núcleo de Engenharia Biomédica at @istecnico ! I'll be sharing insights from our research on #BCI and #VR applications for #neurorehabilitation in #noisysproject at @laseeb_isr /@ISR_Lisboa , @DBioengineering .

Congratulations to our PhD student Madalena Valente for presenting her research on #BCI, #EEG, #Stroke at the PhD Open Days hosted by @istecnico /Tecnico Innovation Center! Supervised by @avourvopoulos & @patricia_mpfig @DBioengineering / @ISR_Lisboa #noisysproject
🌍On #WorldStrokeDay, highlighting the work of the #noisysproject in stroke recovery at @istecnico, @laseeb_isr, @ISR_Lisboa. The aim of NOISyS is to develop a novel and more inclusive rehabilitation training with the use of immersive #VR, #BCI, neuroimaging EEG/fMRI and #AI💪🧠
