Department of Neurorehabilitation Engineering Details
The Department of Neurorehabilitation Engineering at the University Medical Center Goettingen has been founded by Prof. Dr. Dario Farina, who is also the current Director of the Department, in November 2010, within the Bernstein Focus Neurotechnology (BFNT) Goettingen. The Department's infrastructure is provided by the Medical Faculty and BFNT. The research at the Department is also supported by the European Community (see Menu on "Research"). We investigate basic neuromuscular mechanisms mediating movements and their changes underlying both acute adjustments (e.g. muscle fatigue) and chronic adaptations (e.g. training, stroke) (movement neurophysiology). Moreover, we develop methods to restore, replace and modulate lost or impaired motor functions (neurotechnologies). Our approach is interdisciplinary and is based on expertise in computer modeling (bioelectricity, biomechanics, neural networks), neural signal processing (machine learning), electrode and sensor design (high-density intramuscular and surface EMG electrodes), hardware design (multi-channel general-purpose amplifiers), neurophysiology of human movement (spinal circuitries, motor units and motor neurons, motor control modularity) and neurotechnologies (FES, BCI, robotics, active prostheses).
