Mathematical modelling of neuronal EEG activity under brain stimulation 


We are interested in developing neurostimulation techniques in order to improve the 
cure of patients suffering from mental disorders. To this end, our aim is to develop dynamic neural models and 
merging these data to experimentally observed data, such as EEG or BOLD responses. This merge may utilize 
diverse optimization techniques, such as data assimilation. The latter permits to estimate model parameters 
adaptively in non-stationary signals, i.e. online in time. A prominent example for a data assimilation technique is 
Kalman filtering. 

More detailed, we are looking for collaborators, who are interested in neural population models describing 
macroscopic brain activity in pathological brain states under neurostimulation. The mathematical analysis of such 
models typically yields important insights into the origin of the brain activity. Moreover, the merge with 
experimental data demands a certain understanding of data analysis techniques to prepare the experimental 
data and identify correctly good biomarkers. It would be advantageous if the candidate has some 
fundamental expertise in this respect. Finally, the perfect future collaborator has already some expertise in 
parameter estimation techniques, especially in data assimilation.
