Profile of graduates of the Master's degree in Neuroengineering
Neuroengineering is an area of interdisciplinary research that combines neuroscience and engineering methods to study the functioning of the nervous system and develop solutions for the limitations and dysfunctions associated with it. The PPG in Neuroengineering at IIN-ELS has two lines of research: Brain-Machine Interface (BMI) It is neuromodulation
The professional with a Master's Degree in Neuroengineering obtained at the IIN-ELS can work in numerous areas that encompass aspects of experimental, computational, theoretical, clinical and applied research, at molecular, cellular and systems levels. There is room to develop research and technologies in areas such as brain-machine interface, neuromodulation, computational neuroscience and signal processing, rehabilitation, brain-brain interface, prostheses and orthoses, biocompatibility, neurodegenerative diseases, microcephaly, psychiatric diseases and cognition, among others.
