Miles Wischnewski

Dr. Miles Wischnewski is an Assistant Professor at the University of Groningen’s Faculty of Behavioural and Social Sciences, affiliated with the Experimental Psychology department. His research focuses on causal links between brain activity and cognition, particularly using non-invasive neurostimulation techniques like TMS, tDCS, and tACS. He explores how neural oscillations and electrical brain stimulation can influence decision-making, memory, and clinical applications for neurological/psychiatric disorders.

Research interests include neuroplasticity mechanisms, real-time brain state modulation, and translational neuroscience. He co-founded the Neurostimulation Lab and hosts a YouTube channel ‘Psyched!’ for science communication. His work integrates computational modeling (e.g., ACES framework) with experimental paradigms to optimize neuromodulation protocols.

Key contributions involve electric field modeling for clinical trials, meta-analyses of depression treatments, and causal mappings of neural oscillations in working memory. Current projects emphasize personalized neuromodulation strategies and closed-loop systems for precision treatment.
