Professor Nasser Kashou discusses his brain research with functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) for rehabilitation and therapy in adults and neonates.
In this quick interview I discuss the two presentations given at the Annual World Congress of Society for Brain Mapping and Therapeutics (SBMT). These talks were presenting the results of our published papers in the journal of Neurophotonics. The titles of the talks were (1) Hand Grasping and Finger Tapping Induced Similar Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) Cortical Responses; and (2) Somatic stimulation causes fronto-parietal cortical changes in neonates: an fNIRS study. For more details on the methods, results and other studies please click on this link. The citation of these full manuscripts are listed below.
