Saul Frankford has been selected as a predoctoral trainee for a Boston University Institutional Training Grant (T32) from the NIH/NIDCD. He will receive multidisciplinary training to prepare him for an academic career in communication sciences and disorders.
Lab member Andrés F. Salazar-Gómez worked on the paper titled, Error-related potential for human-robot interaction: Correcting Robot Mistakes in Real Time Using EEG Signals. In this project we are using EEG signals to automatically detect errors made by a robot. Our work focuses on identifying Error-related Potentials (ErrP), EEG signals generated in response to an […]
