deep brain stimulation (dbs); eeg and fmri; micro magnetic stimulation (ums); mri safety; mri/ct compatible electrodes (invasive and non-invasive); numerical models of whole body adults and children; sleep; transcranial magnetic stimulation (tms); transpinal magnetic stimulation (tsms) The unifying theme of Dr. Bonmassar’s academic career has been the basic science development and pre-clinical testing of novel methods for performing MRI/CT compatible neuro-electrophysiological measurements and stimulations. Specifically, his major goals have been both to improve the healthcare of patients with neural implants and to better understand human brain function using data from multiple varied biomedical monitoring technologies, such as functional MRI (fMRI) and electroencephalography (EEG).
