Personal profile

ShortBio

Dr. Eukene Imatz Ojanguren holds a degree in Industrial Automation and Electronics Engineering from the University of Deusto and a Master's degree in Computational Engineering and Intelligent Systems from UPV/EHU. She earned her Ph.D. in Automation and Robotics Engineering with a dissertation on the application of intelligent computing techniques to an upper-limb neuroprosthesis. Her doctoral work was conducted in collaboration between the Systems and Automation Department at UPV/EHU and the rehabilitation division of Tecnalia’s health sector.

She spent six months in the Service Robotics Department at the Danish Technological Institute, working on computer vision projects applied to service robots. Since late 2012, she has been working in Tecnalia's health division, where she is currently the coordinator of the Neural Interfacing team. Additionally, since 2019, she has been a professor in the Master's program in Biomedical Engineering at UPV/EHU.

Her primary research areas include non-invasive electrical stimulation of the human nervous system and intelligent computing techniques applied to medical technologies. Among her most recent research activities, she led the CHRONIC PAIN project, funded by the European Union's EIT Health program, which developed a sensitivity analysis system using non-invasive multi-field electrical stimulation for chronic back pain patients eligible for spinal cord stimulation. She is also involved in other research projects that focus on developing devices for non-invasive interaction with the nervous system and advanced algorithms for various healthcare applications.

Dr. Imatz Ojanguren is the author of several scientific articles published in indexed journals, has presented at national and international biomedical engineering conferences, holds several patents related to electrical stimulation, and is a member of the International Functional Electrical Stimulation Society (IFESS).
