Projects
Combined EEG - Eye Tracking System Ghent University
Electroencephalography (EEG) and eye tracking are both core research methods in our department. The combination of EEG and eye tracking is very promising because it allows studying brain potentials under more natural circumstances using highly complementary methods. This combination is difficult to attain on our current, heavily used systems. We therefore apply for a combined brain potential – eye tracking system.
Measuring cognitive activity via EEG and eye tracking during language processing Ghent University
The psycholinguistic nature of many research lines in linguistics, translation, and experimental psychology requires systems that measure the cognitive processes underlying the use of (multiple) languages. Such equipment is very valuable and much on demand, as is clear from the number of researchers that would like to employ the combination of EEG and eye tracking. Various research goals are envisaged, such as the creation of freely available ...
Validation of language related EEG algorithm for aphasia rehabilitation (Neurolap) Ghent University
After a stroke, the affected brain functions can be neurally reorganized (neuroplasticity) during rehabilitation. Focusing on language functions (i.e. phonology, semantics and grammar), the diagnosis and follow-up of aphasia currently occurs with ‘pencil-and-paper tasks’ which lack a direct mapping of neuroplasticity. The implementation of a linguistic electro-encephalographic (EEG) registration during the diagnostic (re-)evaluation of ...
The time course of cognitive control: EEG investigations Ghent University
This research applies EEG to investigate the time cours of cognitive control. Conflict detection and control implementation in sensory cortex is studies. Further, the effect of reward on the time cours of control is studies. Finally, the time course of control for unconscious conflict is also studies.
Co-financing KU Leuven-project for purchase of EEG set-up equipment: Integrated Platform for Closed-Loop Motor Training and Adaptive Neuromodulation Hasselt University
Epilog: EEG software services to support the diagnosis and treatment of refractory epilepsy Ghent University
During the first phase of the project, an alpha-prototype will be developed. We will collect data from the Ghent University Hospital of +/- 100 patients who had brain surgery to optimize and validate our software framework. The goal is to automate the whole framework as much as possible so it requires a minimum of manual intervention. For the alphaprototype, we aim to reach a sensitivity and specificity higher than the latest published ...
