Next generation neural interfaces based on graphene nanotechnology

Prof. Jose Antonio Garrido

ICREA Research Professor and Vice Director
ICN2 Advanced Electronic Materials and Devices Group Leader

Jose A. Garrido is an ICREA Research Professor and leader of the ICN2 Advanced Electronic Materials and Devices Group, which explores novel electronic materials, such as graphene and other 2D materials, and their potential in electronic and bioelectronic applications.

He received his Master’s and PhD degrees in Telecommunication Engineering from the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid in 1996 and 2000, respectively. From 2001 to 2004 he worked as a postdoc at the Walter Schottky Institute, Technische Universität München (Germany). He obtained his habilitation in experimental physics at this university in 2010 and from 2011 to 2015 held a lecturer (privatdozent) position at its department of physics.

In 2015 Jose A. Garrido joined the ICN2 where, in addition to his role as Group Leader, he is Vice-Director. He was the coordinator of the European project BrainCom (finished in April 2022), in which 10 institutions from 6 countries participated in the development of a brain implant that allows verbal communication in patients with aphasia. He was also the leader of the GraphCAT project (finished in June 2022), which is part of a large initiative of the Catalan government aiming at supporting emerging communities with large innovation potential. The project involves over 20 institutions including industry and academia.

In addition, he is also the coordinator of the i-VISION project funded by La Caixa Foundation, where 5 institutions join forces in the development of a retinal implant to restore vision. Since October 2022, he is coordinating the MINIGRAPH project, in which 7 institutions from 5 countries work together develop and validate a new generation of brain implants with closed-loop neuromodulation capabilities enabled by high-density arrays of graphene microelectrodes.

Jose A Garrido is also founder, Chief Scientific Officer, and member of Board of Directors of INBRAIN Neuroelectronics, an ICN2 spin-off that aims at the commercialization of graphene-based neural devices for medical applications. During 2022, INBRAIN has raised €17.5M from the European Commission via the EIC Accelerator, and won the most innovative company of 2022 prize by “El Periodico”.
