Denison Group

The Denison Group is based at the Institute of Biomedical Engineering and the Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences, University of Oxford.

Research Themes

Tools (devices, software, algorithms)

Our research spans three themes: smart implants using closed-loop control for neurotherapies (supporting four clinical studies), non-invasive therapies advancing TMS and memory-reactivation headsets, and resource-limited neurotech developing deployable hardware and algorithms for global healthcare.

Approaches

Experimental Medicine

Active and completed trials (EPIONE, CADET, MINDS, SPARKS) advance experimental medicine by validating adaptive and simplified deep brain stimulation for pain, epilepsy, MSA, and Parkinson’s disease. These studies translate neuroengineering innovation into clinical therapies, bridging lab research and patient care.
