IEEE Journal of Translational Engineering in Health and Medicine's unique aim is to publish original work in the intersection of engineering and clinical translation. The journal's focus is interdisciplinary collaborations between researchers, healthcare providers, and industry and aims to publish results and best practices from these translational efforts.
Sam Darvishi was born in Sarbandar, Iran, in 1974. He received the B.Eng. degree in electronic engineering from the Urmia University, Iran, in 1997, and the M.Eng. degree (Merit) in automation and manufacturing systems from the University of Sydney, Australia in 2007, and the Ph.D. degree in electrical and electronic engineering from The University of Adelaide, Australia, in 2016, under the supervision of M. Baumert, M. C. Ridding and D. Abbott with a focus on feedback optimisation for restorative brain-computer interfaces. Following his PhD studies, he received an Endeavour Fellowship Award and conducted postdoctoral research on brain-computer interfaces at the University of Tübingen, Germany, in 2016-17 under the supervision of A. Gharabaghi. He is currently involved with running preclinical trials to investigate the efficacy of a novel restorative brain-computer interface system.
There is evidence that 15–30% of the general population cannot effectively operate brain–computer interfaces (BCIs). Thus the BCI performance predictors are critically required to pre-screen participants. Current neurophysiological and psychological tests either require complicated equipment or suffer from subjectivity. Thus,...
