The students will follow seminars and a theoretical-practical internship that will be carried out at the laboratories of the Institute of Advanced Biomedical Technologies (ITAB).
The topics covered during the seminars will be:
1. Experimental methods and measures
2. IT tools for data analysis
3. Fluidostatics applied to gaseous exchanges in breathing
4. Electromagnetic brain signals and their detection
5. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
6. Brain activity studied by Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging
7. Infrared Imaging
The internships, to be carried out in small groups with the help of a tutor, are:
Physical methodologies applied to Medicine - Phase I
Anthropometric measurements on voluntary subjects for the estimation of body parameters (such as density, surface, etc.).
Physical Methodologies applied to Medicine - Phase II
In this second phase, students will be offered five insights that will bring them into contact with advanced methodologies for measuring parameters related to movement and exercise, fluid dynamics, near-infrared spectroscopy, electromyography.
Examples of research activities - Phase III
Research activity of the Functional Infrared Imaging laboratory, the Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Laboratory, the Functional Magnetic Resonance Laboratory.
If the provisions related to the COVID-19 pandemic make it impossible to carry out the activity at the laboratories of the Institute of Advanced Biomedical Technologies (ITAB), this activity will be replaced by video selections.
