Prof. Vinjamuri receives NSF IUCRC Phase II award

Supports UMBC's partnership in the BRAIN Center


UMBC CSEE Professor Ramana Vinjamuri received a new NSF IUCRC Phase II award to support participation as a partner in BRAIN, the Building Reliable Advances and Innovations in Neurotechnologies Industry-University Cooperative Research Center.

BRAIN's overall goal is to develop and validate new technologies that address the needs of physically and neurologically impaired individuals and those of the growing aging population. 

Research in Dr. Vinjamuri's lab complements existing strengths in other BRAIN sites and expands research into new areas, including artificial intelligence, neural imaging and stimulation, cyber-human systems, human-centered computing, neural signal processing, and virtual/augmented/mixed reality.

NSF funds Industry–University Cooperative Research Centers like BRAIN to conduct joint research with innovative industry partners.
