Chen et al. explored the temporal dynamics of cortical activation during cognitive tasks using a multimodal fNIRS–EEG approach. By integrating hemodynamic and electrophysiological signals, the team achieved a comprehensive view of both the where and when of brain activation.
The findings highlight how simultaneous fNIRS and EEG measurements complement each other to paint a richer picture of brain function.

Naik et al. combined fNIRS and EEG measurements with machine learning to classify cognitive workload levels in surgeons. Using the Brite, their multimodal setup captured both hemodynamic and electrical brain activity, revealing subtle neural patterns linked to task complexity and surgical expertise.
This study shows how integrating #fNIRS and #EEG provides a more comprehensive view of cognitive processes.

Panico et al. combined fNIRS and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to explore how the cerebello-prefrontal network contributes to recognizing emotional prosody.
Using #fNIRS to monitor cortical hemodynamics, they revealed how cerebellar modulation influences prefrontal activation during emotional speech perception. This approach deepens our understanding of the neural pathways involved in emotion recognition and communication.

In a recent study, Tahir et al. explored the potential of combining fNIRS with EEG as a diagnostic tool for bipolar disorder.
The team used the OxyMon to record brain hemodynamics alongside neural electrical activity, offering a more comprehensive picture of brain function than either modality alone.
Their findings highlight how multimodal fNIRS-EEG could pave the way for improved diagnostic detection in psychiatric disorders.

Our latest blogpost shows how the PortaLite MKII can simultaneously measure oxygenation in brain and muscle tissue, providing valuable insights for:
🟡 Sports Science: track both neural control and muscular effort during exercise
🔵 Clinical Research: assess recovery and rehabilitation strategies with combined insights
🟡 Hypoxia & Altitude Studies: capture systemic oxygenation in challenging conditions

How does carrying heavy loads in low-oxygen environments affect both brain and muscle? In their recent study, Baur et al. simultaneously measured brain and muscle oxygenation with the OctaMon and PortaMon to investigate the physiological response to thoracic load carriage in hypoxia.
By combining cerebral and muscular #NIRS data, the authors revealed how oxygenation patterns adapt under these demanding conditions.

In this study, Allinger et al. used our PortaMon & PortaLite #NIRS to examine brain 🧠 and muscle 💪 oxygenation during static vs. dynamic breath-holding in divers 🫁
Key findings:
🟡 Dynamic BH led to greater prefrontal O₂ imbalance
🔵 Static BH showed larger increases in cerebral blood velocity
🟡 No evidence of acute neuronal damage in either condition

At this year’s Lowlands festival, social scientists from Utrecht University and Leiden University used our Brite Lite to explore how our brains and bodies sync up during interaction. With hyperscanning, they measured the brain activity of multiple participants to see how we connect (sometimes even without words) and how music shapes our social bonds.

This study used both PortaMon & PortaLite to examine how hypoxemia (anemia+hypoxia) affects brain & muscle oxygenation in women during max exercise.
🟡 Anemic women experienced greater reductions in VO₂max, peak power output & cerebral oxygenation
🔵 Skeletal muscle failed to increase O₂ utilization at maximal effort
🟡 The cardiovascular system was unable to fully compensate, resulting in exercise intolerance

What happens in your brain and muscles when sprinting under pressure, especially in the heat?
Di Domenico et al. explored this by tracking cerebral and muscular oxygenation during repeated treadmill sprints in hot conditions. Using the PortaMon and PortaLite, they captured how both brain and muscle respond to physical and thermal strain.
