Who we are
We are a team of biomedical and electronic engineers developing data science technologies to investigate the dynamics and structure of complex physiological systems.
Our research ranges from statistical physics to computational neuroscience and physiology and focuses on the use of signal processing, time series analysis and information theory to assess interactions in network systems, with application spanning from brain connectivity to cardiovascular oscillations and network physiology.
