📢📢 ANNOUNCEMENT: We will be going fully online. 📢📢

Have you watched the "I AM HUMAN" movie?

Do you want to listen to the story of the first real-world “cyborg”???

IEEE UNSW Student Branch presents "Frontiers in Brain-Machine Interfacing", a technical talk on the next generation of medical engineering.

We are hosting an amazing speaker to share his knowledge of the brain-computer interface that leading to evolutionary computing.

Speaker bio:
Dr Mohit Shivdasani received a master’s degree in Biomedical Engineering at La Trobe University, Melbourne. He was subsequently offered a scholarship to undertake a PhD in Auditory Neuroscience following which he took up a postdoctoral Research Fellow position at the Bionics Institute (formerly Bionic Ear Institute) in 2009. Since then, he focused on developing a bionic eye for vision restoration in blind humans. His research at the Bionics Institute played a major role in this project since the beginning, and his unique preclinical electrophysiology experiments were instrumental in the design and development of Australia's first bionic eye prototype which was successfully implanted in three patients in 2012, only 3 years since the development of the device began.

In February 2018, he was appointed as a Senior Lecturer in Bionics in GSBmE, UNSW. Based on this unique preclinical and clinical experience with the bionic eye his future goals are to continue basic research to help improve the resolution of devices which will help improve functional outcomes and increase the quality of living for patients. He has published several papers in prestigious international journals and has won many awards including the 2006 Young Biomedical Engineer of the Year presented by Engineers Australia. In 2014, he procured independent research funding through a New Investigator Project Grant from the National Health and Medical Research Council of Australia and was elected as a Senior Member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) in 2016. He has also supervised several PhD and master’s students to completion and has made numerous local and international invited presentations about his research, both professionally and publicly.
