We are dedicated to developing clinical neuroprosthetic devices - in particular, focussed on visual prosthetics and epilepsy. In particular, we are aiming to create genetically enhanced bionics using a technique called neuroprosthetics
Primary lab activities
Neuroprosthetic applications
Visual brain prosthesis
For those blinded by glaucoma and other severe conditions
Retinal prosthesis
For those blinded by Retinitis Pigmentosa
Seizure Suppression
For epilepsy patients with focal seizures
On our OptoNeuro project we explored optogenetic forms of retinal prosthesis. We developed an optoelectronic stimulator array and associated goggle optics.
Our primary focus is to develop an optogenetic visual brain prosthesis to restore sight to the blind. Our focus has been on the implantable opto-electronics and control systems.
Neuroprosthetic applications
Control systems
For signal processing and communications
Implantable devices
For sensing, stimulation and diagnostics
Bio-microelectronics
For digital and analog sensing and driving of devices.

During this difficult time of COVID-19 as Neuroprosthesis lab team we adapted well to the current situation, we switched to the online lab meeting and all together we will continue to support each other and try to be innovative as ever till we return back to our normal routine. As PhD student, I’m trying to look at the positive effect of the current situation, so I set up a small new office in my home to continue doing online research, online courses and simulation beside the other home responsibilities. It is a challenging time for everyone but I am sure that this difficult time will pass.
