Joana Pereira

I am a postdoctoral researcher at the UMC Freiburg (Department of Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery) interested in adaptive deep brain stimulation based on brain and/or behavioural signals. My main focus is on studying the effects of DBS in patients suffering from major depression at both cortical and subcortical levels. During my PhD in the TUGraz, I conducted research in EEG-based BCIs for control of robotic arms or grasp neuroprostheses (MoreGrasp and FeelYourReach EU-projects).
