Dr. Nerea IRASTORZA-LANDA received her BSc degree in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Navarre, Spain, in 2013 and her MSc degree in Mechatronic Systems for Rehabilitation from the University Pierre et Marie Curie, France, in 2014. In 2014, she completed her Master Thesis on the analysis of electromyographic signals for the control of rehabilitation robotics in the Neuroprosthetics group at the Institute of Medical Psychology and Behavioural Neurobiology, University of Tübingen, Germany. In 2015, she was awarded with the Basque Government scholarship to join Ikerbasque and carry out her PhD in Neuroscience at the International Max Planck Research School, University of Tübingen, Germany. She defended her thesis about the EMG-based biomarkers of motor recovery and myoelectric interfaces for motor rehabilitation in stroke patients in 2021. Since October 2019, she is working as a research scientist in the Medical Technologies group at TECNALIA Research and Innovation, Spain. She has experience in neural decoding algorithms (intracortical brain activity, EEG, EMG), in the implementation of HW/SW of neural interfacing platforms for the control of body actuators and in the design of clinical trials. Her research topics of interest include neural interfaces, robotics for neurorehabilitation and the study of neurophysiological signatures of motor recovery.
