Project description

Brain functions are reprogrammed physiologically when they are affected by a brain disorder such as stroke or degenerative disease. The clinical diagnostics of these brain functions are still performed with pen and paper tasks, while we are technically and methodologically able to map this neuroplasticity with brain imaging. The aim of this project is to validate the ERP technology, to draw up a business plan demonstrating the economic, diagnostic and therapeutic benefits of the tool and to develop a spin-off business plan using a market research.
