Electroencephalography (EEG) and the virtual brain (tvb)

The digital transformation of personalized medicine necessitates interdisciplinary competencies capable of integrating neurophysiology, computational neuroscience, and artificial intelligence. In this context, Sapienza University of Rome (UNIROMA1), developed the course “Electroencephalography (EEG) and The Virtual Brain”. This program operates within the framework of WP4 on EEG Ontology of the eBRAIN-Health project (HORIZON-INFRA-2021-TECH-01-01 – Interdisciplinary digital twins for modelling and simulating complex phenomena at the service of research infrastructure communities).
The course focuses on a neuroscience topic: the European Virtual Brain platform, which produces digital brain twins  of patients with brain diseases based on quantitative electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data. Digital brain twins  serve as “digital” indicators of brain function alterations in these patients.
 
The course introduces the concepts about electroencephalography, computational approaches to electroencephalographic data,  The Virtual Brain, what it is used for and some basic aspects of its use based on electroencephalography and magnetic resonance imaging data in research and clinical applications to brain diseases.
