MEG and EEG-based brain-imaging technology allows us to visualize and study neuronal processes non-invasively, with very high temporal and reasonable spatial resolution. Currently, this method is used not only to localize neuronal activity but also to recover the dynamics of the entire neural network comprised of several distant cortical regions subserving the cognitive phenomenon at hands. The accuracy and reproducibility of such inferences crucially depend on the methods and computational approaches used for analysis of the MEG and EEG sensor data. Development of the novel methods and verification of the existing approaches allow us to ensure that the information present in the data is utilized with maximal efficiency. The use of the subject-specific probabilistic models obtained via data fusion form various modalities including fMRI, DTI, Optical tomography, TMS bear a promise of improving the non-invasively achieved resolution and further open "the non-invasive window" into the brain's function.
The clinical portion of this work is done in close collaboration with the Moscow MEG center, Burdenko Institute of Neurosurgery and the Institute for problems of Mechanical Engineering, RAS, and is supported by an RFFI grant.
Real-time EEG: neurofeedback and neurointerfaces
Neurofeedback is a promising tool for non-pharmacological therapy for depression, ADHD, epilepsy and other psychiatric diseases and syndromes. This technique is also used for peak performance training and in relaxation practices. Within the neurofeedback paradigm a person is put into a closed loop where his/her brain state is presented as a feedback signal via one of the sensory modalities and is used to consciously (or not so consciously) modify the dynamics of his/her brain rythms. In this project we will consider this closed-loop system from the standpoint of control theory (both continuous and discrete) and will focus on developing novel model-based techniques to improve the efficiency and spatial specificity of neurofeedback therapy. This research will pave the way towards a new generation of more efficient and more natural brain-computer interfaces

Russian Scientists Create Biomimetic Algorithm to Find Epileptogenic Areas of the Brain
Researchers from the HSE University Centre for Bioelectric Interfaces have designed a new method for detecting diagnostic markers of epilepsy, called interictal spikes, using EEG and MEG. Capable of accounting for various errors and artefacts, this method constitutes a valuable addition to the arsenal of means for automatic analysis of electrophysiological recordings in epilepsy patients, especially when the data are noisy. Precise localisation of epileptogenic cortical structures can enhance the effectiveness of neurosurgical interventions. The study was published in the Journal of Neural Engineering.
