Research focus:  Sleep electrophysiology, Neuromodulation (auditory stimulation, transcranial temporal interference stimulation (tTIS))

Short Description: During my thesis, I am investigating the pathway underlying K-complex generation, through transcranial Temporal Interference Stimulation (a novel non-invasive brain stimulation technique). I am investigating whether modulating these regions can influence sleep oscillations, providing a foundation for restoring deficient sleep rhythms in clinical populations, such as epilepsy or ADHD.
