As a leading expert in neuroscience, brain-computer interfaces, and artificial intelligence, Prof. Klaes has made significant contributions to the field. His groundbreaking work includes decoding motor imagery from the posterior parietal cortex of a tetraplegic human,

as well as developing advanced neuroprostheses and assistive devices for people with severe paralysis. His interdisciplinary approach involves neuroscience, neurosurgery, machine learning, and virtual reality (VR).
