Operating within NÖROM, the EEG and Sleep Laboratory provides an advanced research infrastructure to investigate the neurophysiological foundations of neurological and psychiatric disorders.
Through two 128-channel high-resolution EEG (electroencephalography) systems located in the unit, the cognitive functions and electrical brain activities of individuals can be measured in detail. With this infrastructure, electrophysiological evaluations of epilepsy, dementia, autism spectrum disorder, and various other neurodevelopmental and neurocognitive disorders are conducted.
In addition, the laboratory features a well-equipped sleep unit that offers inpatient monitoring capabilities. In this unit, where sleep physiology—the foundation of cognitive functions and healthy brain activity—is investigated, comprehensive physiological measurements and research are conducted on neurological sleep disorders, which can be early indicators of neurodegenerative processes such as Parkinson's and dementia, as well as on other sleep pathologies that predispose individuals to cardiovascular and chronic diseases.
