Last week, we had an engaging AEGEUS project meeting in Bremen. This time, we met in Bremen to discuss the next steps towards our combined ultrasound-EEG-device for deep brain stimulation and measurements. We put a focus on transducer positioning and clinical study design and gained valuable insights from the discussion with our Scientific Advisory Board.
We extend our gratitude to our host and all participants for their constructive participation.

We were delighted that our AEGEUS project was part of this year’s European Researchers’ Night in Frascati, organized by Associazione Frascati Scienza. We hope our poster successfully sparked the interest and curiosity of the attendees.
The European Researchers’ Night is the largest science outreach event in Europe. In 2024 and 2025, 58 projects will host events in 25 countries. Universities and research institutes across Europe will open their doors to showcase their work through presentations, experiments, games, discussions, and other interactive formats.
A fantastic opportunity to bring science to the forefront and inspire young people to engage with it. It’s a contribution towards a better future.

We proudly announce that our project colleague Sven Rothlübbers from Fraunhofer MEVIS will present his results on “Fourier-based Signal Projection for Global Speed of Sound Autofocusing in Plane-Wave Imaging” at the ISTU Congress in Taipei on Sunday, September 22 at 09:34 AM in Session “Treatment Monitoring”. Information about the global speed of sound is a crucial basis for ultrasound therapy planning and monitoring. His work’s objective is to estimate it efficiently which will bring the AEGEUS project one step ahead.

We proudly announce that we have successfully participated in Module A of the Horizon Results Booster with our project group CITRUS. The three EIC Pathfinder Projects CITRUS EU-Project, CROSSBRAIN and AEGEUS Project have identified their potential collective results to be disseminated, their characteristics and the target stakeholders.
All three projects are investigating completely new technologies for brain stimulation and measurement of neural activity with the ultimate goal of treating neurological diseases, e.g., psychiatric disorders or epilepsy.
Looking forward to more fruitful collaboration in the upcoming Module B.

One of our very first tomographic imaging setups with 32 transducers from Fraunhofer IBMT being tested at Fraunhofer MEVIS’ lab to detect local changes in speed of sound.
A first step in the AEGEUS project to assess our capabilities of detecting local changes in brain activity.

Many thanks to Steffen Tretbar and his team from Fraunhofer IBMT for hosting our face-to-face meeting within the AEGEUS project.
We could decide upon important next steps towards the first prototype of a combined EEG ultrasound device for the head which aims to improve the understanding of neural activity in the brain.
