Overview
I'm a PostDoc in machine learning at the Intelligent Data Analysis group at the Berlin Institute of Technology (Technische Universität Berlin), Germany and member of the Berlin Brain-Computer Interface group (BBCI). My current research interest includes BCI for patients, new auditory BCI paradigms, mental state monitoring for BCI, workload analysis in real-time applications, EEG-based gaming. On the algorithmic side this includes methods for feature selection and adaptation. Furthermore I am interested in audio perception and in industrial applications for machine learning. To investigate most of these topics I perform experiments with healthy subjects and patients and analyze their brain activity based on EEG, ECoG, NIRS and MEG signals.My publication list gives a more detailed picture of my research activities. On some topics you may also find short overviews. I'm also involved with teaching.

- Organized a press conference with live demo of BCI-controlled pinball gaming (with the Addams Family Pinball machine)
- New work on playing pinball with BCI control was published in NIPS 2008
- TOBI has started in november 2008. It combines 11 BCI groups from 5 countries. Goal: BCI assistive technology is applied for patients with motor disabilities.
- Hooray! Our grant proposal for a large European integrated project (7th framework) was accepted. The new acronym to get used to: TOBI (tools for brain-computer interaction).
