摘要：Electroencephalography (EEG) from scalp potentials is one of the primary non-invasive strategies for functional imaging of the human brain. By recording external potentials, it provides crucial insights into neural activity and remains a cornerstone of clinical neuroimaging. Its importance is particularly evident in epilepsy diagnostics: in focal epilepsy, accurate source characterization and localization are essential steps prior to surgical intervention. At the same time, EEG is a foundational technology for Brain–Computer Interfaces (BCIs), enabling direct communication between the brain and external devices. High-resolution EEG systems, however, are computationally intensive technologies, where a significant part of the imaging process relies on advanced electromagnetic modeling of brain propagation. Innovations in computational methods, modeling strategies, and algorithmic approaches are currently at the heart of major cross-disciplinary research efforts, originating from Computational Electromagnetics (CEM) and advanced electromagnetic engineering.
This talk will present some of the most recent strategies and advances in the field of CEM-empowered neuroimaging: technologies for brain diagnostics, therapy, and interaction where computational power, advanced algorithms, and ad hoc platforms have enabled exciting discoveries, therapeutic progress, and impactful applications. Current trends and open Grand Challenges will be outlined, alongside past achievements and ongoing research efforts, including those within the EIC Pathfinder project “CEREBRO.” Without over-indulging in technicalities, the talk will showcase recent theoretical and experimental breakthroughs, always in connection with their promising applications in diagnostics, mind–machine interfaces, and immersive neurofeedback.
