Nils A. Birbaumer

Nils A. Birbaumer is a renowned German neuroscientist known for his research on brain-computer interfaces and neuroplasticity. He studies how the brain can be trained or re-wired to improve communication and restore functions in individuals with neurological conditions, such as paralysis or speech impairments. His work often involves measuring brain activity to enable direct communication between the brain and external devices, helping people regain control and independence. Birbaumer’s research has advanced our understanding of brain mechanisms and potential therapies for neurorehabilitation.
