Projects he works on:
Title: Development of a neurorehabilitation system based on cortical stimulation using eye-tracking virtual limb control (NRET)
Description: A gaming platform that activates motor areas in the brain by controlling virtual elements with eye movements. This neurorehabilitation system allows for a faster recovery of upper limb mobility when used in conjunction with conventional therapy in stroke patients.

Projects: Principal Investigator of the project Development of an advanced prototype of high scientific and technological quality for biomedical applications based on DOT-NIR near infrared image reconstruction
Position: SEGAI Technical Doctor of the Magnetic Resonance Imaging Service for Biomedical Research. University of La Laguna.
Description: “Development of a prototype diffuse optics tomograph in the near-infrared for obtaining in vivo biomedical images that enable the detection of specific physiological or pathological characteristics in tissues. Carried out within the framework of the Agustín de Betancourt Transfer Program 2016-2020, with the participation of the Department of Physics, Applied Physics area and the Department of Basic Medical Sciences, Neurochemistry and Neuroimaging Laboratory, University of La Laguna, in collaboration with the company Informática Y Equipamiento Médico De Canarias SA. Principal Investigator: Francisco J. Marcano Serrano.

Title of your project: Optical and Deep-brain Interface to measure Neural activity (ODIN)
Project description: First prototype of an optical and electrical interface to measure hemodynamic and electrical changes during movement. We created the first minimally invasive brain implant based on near-infrared light, which, combined with in-depth recordings of muscle and brain activity, provides data to understand the motor control involved in movement disorders.
