We all feel down occasionally. Sometimes there is a reason, and sometimes there is not. For me, it is often in the evenings when I’m about to go to bed that everything comes crashing down.

Planning for a Licentiate degree
A common thing to do at the department of Automatic control, where I work, is to write a Licentiate thesis halfway through the Ph.D. The Licentiate degree is an academic degree used as a “declaration of future research in the Ph.D.“.

Bees
My parents keep bees in their garden. The bees are adorable. The last time I visited, it was hot, and the bees were drinking water from my parents’ pond. Here are some bee-related videos I have recorded.
vBCI – reflections
I visited my first conference this spring. I presented a poster (abstract and video) for an adaptive approach to the calibration of BCI systems. I was very nervous before it started, but it was great – so much inspiration and new ideas. Some thoughts that I bring to the next conference I visit: Don’t be afraid toContinue reading “vBCI – reflections”
