Inge Leunissen (H.P.)

I study how dynamic patterns of brain activity shape our ability to control and adapt behaviour, and how these mechanisms can be targeted with non-invasive brain stimulation. A central theme of my work is moving beyond one-size-fits-all stimulation towards approaches that are guided by ongoing neural activity in real time. I combine EEG, TMS, tACS, neuroimaging and computational analyses to identify relevant brain states, test their causal role and develop closed-loop stimulation strategies that respond to them. My current work focuses particularly on motor-control circuits and pathological brain rhythms, with the longer-term goal of developing mechanistically grounded, non-invasive interventions for Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease.
