The international event took place last Friday (1st), at the School of Medicine and Health Sciences at the Universidad del Rosario, located in Bogotá, Colombia.
During the lecture, Delisle gave details about the functioning and results achieved by the ISD postgraduate program in neuroengineering and presented the lines of care and health education developed at Anita. The researcher's participation took place remotely, via video call conference.
“It was an opportunity to present applied and developing innovations based on human-machine, brain-computer and brain-brain interfaces for motor, cognitive and communication assistance, in addition to sharing actions to improve health services,” explained the professor.
The event was organized by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), an organization that seeks to apply science and technological development for the benefit of humanity.
