Bachelor's / Master's Thesis / Research Internship
Wearable Technology, especially consumer wearables like smartwatches, play an increasing role in medical trials. They allow the longitudinal recording of various sensor data in free living conditions. This may help to gain a better understanding of...
Project
This research aims to investigate the IMU signals recorded during the Freeze of Gait events in patients with Parkinson's disease.
Freezing of gait, a common symptom of Parkinson’s disease, presents as sporadic episodes in which an individual’s feet suddenly feel stuck to the ground. Iner...

Background
A major issue in modern palliative medicine is the lack of objective and continuous assessment of the health status of patients. This status can be classified by measurement tools such as the Karnofsky index or ECOG (Eastern Cooperative Oncology...

Background
Patients in palliative care are often treated with opioids for pain relief. However, patients react very differently to opioid dosages. Furthermore, opioids can cause serious adverse reactions. As wrong dosages can lead to serious unwanted outco...
Bachelor's / Master's Thesis / Research Internship / Project
The aim of our research is to explore the potential of digital technologies in psychological research to better understand human psychology and behavior. Many psychological research areas still rely on “traditional” methods, such as labor...
Bachelor's / Master's Thesis / Research Internship / Project
Acute stress reliably activates, among other pathways, the sympathetic nervous system, leading to changes in heart rate (variability) (HR and HRV), respiration, pre-ejection period (PEP), and electrodermal activity (EDA). So far, these pa...

Master's Thesis
Preterm birth is defined as birth before completed 37 weeks of gestation (pregnancy weeks). It accounts for 75% of perinatal mortality (dying during or related to the course pregnancy). It is the leading cause of perinatal morbidity worldwide. Around 10% of neonates (babys) are born...

The goal of this thesis is to find a controller that can reproduce realistic and robust standing / walking behaviour of a neuromusculoskeletal model based on physiological feedback. In a first step, this should be done using imitation learning from data that we recorded in a previous study. If that ...
Research Internship / Project / Master's Thesis
Congenital heart defects (CHD) affect around 1.1% of newborns in Germany. The non-invasive fetal ECG is a promising technology for prenatal detection of CHD. It offers a safe and effective way to assess the cardiac health of a baby before birth. Howev...
Master's Thesis / Research Internship / Project
Pregnancy is a multifaceted process marked by physiological changes in the female body. Electrocardiogram (ECG) patterns also evolve during pregnancy, adapting to the demands of this transformative phase. With modern smartwatches, wrist-worn ECG monit...

Monitoring vital signs is crucial for assessing the physiological status of individuals. The heart rate is a vital sign typically measured continuously using wearables or electrocardiogram (ECG) recording. Contactless vital sign monitoring is desirable in various healthcare settings to avoid the inc...
