We are looking for healthy participants to take part in a feasibility study looking at different prototypes of a novel brain stimulator. During this research study conducted by RELab, we aim to investigate the usability of different designs of electrode earpieces for non-invasive Vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) in healthy individuals.
It was a pleasure to organize this year's medical engineering hackathon! Within one week, medical students of ETH Zurich engineered a gripper for a model exoskeleton using newly acquired knowledge in prototyping, electronics, programming, and CAD. Remarkable concepts were developed and tested in a CYBATHLON-inspired competition.
Frederic Schlicht joined the RELab as lab administrator in January 2024. He manages RELab's administrative tasks and helps employees and students with their administrative needs.
Mathieu Berthet started his Ph.D. at the RELab in cooperation with the Lake Lucerne Institute (LLUI) in November 2023. He is a member of the StimuLOOP project, where his research focuses on personalized gait rehabilitation for patients with stroke or Parkinson's disease. Through the use of real-time multimodal feedback, he aims to develop novel data-driven training protocols that will improve gait quality and mobility.
At RELab we stand with Ukraine and support ScienceForUkraine initiatives.
