He has been a visiting professor at the University of Houston (USA) and at Imperial College London (United Kingdom). His current research interests are Brain-Machine Interfaces, Neuro-robotics and Rehabilitation Robotics. Over the last years, his research has been funded by prestigious grants from the European Union, other international government agencies, and Spain. He has been the PI of more than 20 research projects, and his research has resulted in more than 200 technical papers and 3 patents.

Milena Korostenskaja, Ph.D., is a neuroscientist who specializes in the clinical applications of Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs). This includes functional mapping for epilepsy surgery and motor rehabilitation post-stroke. She has contributed to over 50 peer-reviewed publications and has given more than 90 talks at various scientific venues. Dr. Korostenskaja also teaches neuroscience-related courses to both graduate and undergraduate students, including a course on adaptive neurotechnologies and brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). She is the founder of "The Institute of Neuroapproaches", where she offers career coaching and education to help people build successful careers in neuroscience and neurotechnologies. Additionally, Dr. Korostenskaja hosts the "Neurocareers: Doing the Impossible!" podcast, which aims to inspire and support people in exploring careers in neuroscience and neurotechnologies. She is also an official host of a special "BCI Award Neurocareers podcast series" featuring nominees and winners of the International BCI Award.

Brendan Allison has been active in EEG research for over 20 years, most of which involved brain-computer interface (BCI) systems. He earned his PhD in Cognitive Science in 2003 at UC San Diego, where he focused on BCIs based on visual attention (primarily P300) and imagined movement. He has since worked with several top researchers and institutes, including Prof. Wolpaw at the New York State Dept of Health, Prof. Polich at The Scripps Research Institute, and Profs. Pfurtscheller and Neuper at Graz University of Technology. He returned to his alma mater and is again with the Cognitive Science Dept. at UCSD. He is a Founding Board Member of the BCI Society and editor of the BCI Journal. Dr. Allison's recent work involves extending BCI technology to help new groups. This includes persons seeking motor rehabilitation after a stroke and persons with disorders of consciousness (DOC).

Christoph Guger 是 g.tec medical engineering GmbH 的創辦人兼執行長，該公司是腦機介面（BCI）和生物信號處理領域的領先企業。他擁有生物醫學工程博士學位，並持有 GMP 和 ISO 13485 認證，對 BCI 和神經科技擁有深厚的背景和專業知識。Guger 的使命是開發和生產高端 BCI 硬體和軟體，能夠以非侵入性和侵入性方式記錄和分析腦部活動。藉此，他旨在改善中風或肌萎縮側索硬化症（ALS）等運動障礙患者的生活品質和溝通能力，並推進 BCI 在神經康復、神經行銷、腦部映射和神經義肢等各個領域的科學和實際應用。Guger 也為該領域的多項專利和出版物做出了貢獻。

Jose Azorin 是腦機介面系統實驗室的主任及西班牙埃爾切的米格爾·埃爾南德斯大學系統工程與自動化系的全職教授。他於1997年在阿利坎特大學獲得計算機科學碩士學位，並於2003年在米格爾·埃爾南德斯大學獲得博士學位（獲得系最佳論文獎）。他曾擔任美國休斯頓大學和英國帝國理工學院的訪問教授。他目前的研究興趣包括腦機介面、神經機器人學和康復機器人學。在過去幾年中，他的研究得到了歐盟、其他國際政府機構和西班牙的著名資助。他是超過20個研究項目的主要研究者，並且他的研究成果已發表超過200篇技術論文和3項專利。

Milena Korostenskaja 博士是一位神經科學家，專注於腦機介面（BCI）的臨床應用，包括癲癇手術的功能性映射和中風後的運動康復。她已發表超過50篇經過同行評審的出版物，並在各種科學場合發表了超過90次演講。Korostenskaja 博士還教授與神經科學相關的課程，涵蓋研究生和本科生，包括適應性神經科技和腦機介面（BCI）課程。她是「神經方法研究所」的創辦人，該機構提供職業指導和教育，幫助人們在神經科學和神經科技領域建立成功的職業生涯。此外，Korostenskaja 博士主持「神經職業：做不可能的事！」播客，旨在激勵和支持人們探索神經科學和神經科技的職業。她也是「BCI 獎神經職業播客系列」的官方主持人，該系列專訪國際 BCI 獎的提名者和獲獎者。

Brendan Allison 在 EEG 研究領域活躍了超過20年，其中大部分時間涉及腦機介面（BCI）系統。他於2003年在加州大學聖地牙哥分校獲得認知科學博士學位，專注於基於視覺注意（主要是 P300）和想像運動的 BCI。他此後與多位頂尖研究人員和機構合作，包括紐約州衛生部的 Wolpaw 教授、斯克里普斯研究所的 Polich 教授，以及格拉茨科技大學的 Pfurtscheller 和 Neuper 教授。他回到母校，重新加入加州大學聖地牙哥分校的認知科學系。他是 BCI 協會的創始董事會成員，也是 BCI Journal 的編輯。Allison 博士最近的工作涉及擴展 BCI 技術以幫助新的群體，包括尋求中風後運動康復的人士和有意識障礙（DOC）的人士。
