Research Interests
- Modeling and identification of nonlinear dynamical systems.
- Human-in-the-loop and closed-loop control.
- Neuromuscular modeling and control.
- Functional electrical stimulation (FES) for neurorehabilitation.
- Signal processing and modeling of physiological data.
Current Projects
- Personalised Neuromodulation Control and Modeling for Neurorehabilitation.
- At the Chair of Information-Oriented Control (ITR), my work combines nonlinear modeling and identification of neuromuscular dynamics with data-driven and human-adaptive control techniques, aiming at closed-loop functional electrical stimulation (FES) for neurorehabilitation. This research is carried out within the EU Horizon 2020 project ReHyb (#871767).
External Funding
My doctoral research is supported by the ANID-DAAD Bilateral Doctoral Scholarship, a binational programme jointly awarded by the Agencia Nacional de Investigacion y Desarrollo (ANID, Chile) and the Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst (DAAD, Germany) to support doctoral research at a German institution of excellence.
