Functional Brain Lab

The Functional Brain Lab (FBL) of the Faculty of Sport Sciences is focused on the study of the human neuromuscular system from the perspective of the brain, but offers excellent equipment for any kind of brain stimulation research.

The FBL is equipped with a neuronavigated (Localite) transcranial magnetic stimulation system (nTMS; MagPro R30) and compatible 80-channel electroencephalography (EEG; NeurOneTesla) and electromyography (EMG) equipment, enabling nTMS-EEG measurement. The equipment also allows for, among other things, paired-pulse and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS).

MEACS
- MEACS is a CE-marked medical device, it is a miniaturized, modular, and wireless acquisition system for EEG/multi-channel EMG. It is particularly optimized for dynamic EEG/multi-channel EMG acquisitions because it is a battery-powered, miniaturized and floating system (i.e. high-degree rejection of power line interference) with no connecting cables.
