Eva Woods

Eva joined the McMackin Lab in September 2023 as a PhD Student funded by the Discipline of Physiology scholarship fund. Her research consists of comparing and combining neuroimaging and electrophysiological analysis methods, including EEG, TMS and MRI,  to identify early neurodegenerative disease biomarkers in patients with Huntington’s Disease and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. Eva completed a BSc. in Biological and Biomedical Sciences at Maynooth University. As part of her undergraduate degree thesis, she worked alongside the Electronic Engineering Department in Maynooth University working with Brain-Computer Interfaces and Neurofeedback Training. Eva's research interests are in computational neuroscience, neural engineering and neurotechnology.  She is an active member of the Early Career Researchers Network committee of Neuroscience Ireland and a member of the European Huntington's Disease Network's Imaging Working Group, which aims to discuss, develop, and promote best practice for acquisition and analysis of neuroimaging data in Huntington's Disease.
