The Precision Electroceutical Research Lab develops computational models that push the state of the art to enable personalized neuromodulation therapies. In parallel, the lab leverages state-of-the-art modeling, electrophysiology, and data science methods to understand emerging methods for selective modulation of the nervous system. Given the growth in electrical neuromodulation for both autonomic and central nervous systems (e.g., excessive inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis, blood pressure in hypertension, and rehabilitative therapies post-stroke), the lab pursues outcomes that will have a widespread impact on clinical practice.
