Robert Guggenberger

Robert Guggenberger is a multidisciplinary researcher with a dual background in translational neuroscience and software engineering. His academic career included a decade-long role as a Researcher at the Institute for Neurotechnology and Neuromodulation, University Hospital Tübingen, where he focused on non-invasive brain stimulation techniques like TMS, TCS, and PES for treating motor disorders (Parkinson’s, stroke) and exploring neurofeedback mechanisms. He later transitioned to industry in 2022, working as an R&D Specialist at neuroConn.

• Education: Dipl.-Päd. (Master in Education, Otto-Friedrich University Bamberg), Dr.rer.nat (University of Tübingen), Dr.rer.soc (University of Tübingen), M.Eng. in Software Engineering (TH Nürnberg).
• Research Interests: Non-invasive neurostimulation, brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), corticospinal excitability, phase-specific stimulation, neuro-cardiac coupling, and adaptive neurofeedback systems. His work bridges neuroscience, bioethics, and real-time embedded software engineering.

Publications highlight his expertise in EEG-TMS integration, phase-amplitude coupling, vagus nerve stimulation, and methodological advancements in neuroimaging. He actively contributed to peer review for journals in biomedical engineering, neuroethics, and neurorehabilitation. Though currently not supervising students, he previously guided over 20 theses in biomedical engineering and education.
