Research Focus
Dr. Rajit Manohar's lab at Yale University focuses on developing advanced devices for neuromodulation to better control epilepsy seizures. The lab works on creating low-power, programmable processors that can analyze brain signals and modulate neural activity in real-time. This research aims to enhance the treatment options available for patients who are resistant to conventional therapies.
