About me

GYREE is a San Diego-based company launched by a computational neuroscientist Makoto Miyakoshi, which is me, to provide services focused on electroencephalogram (EEG) analyses, software development in Matlab, and consultation for related topics that include but not limited to, designing an human experiment, applying statistics, and publishing a scientific paper. I have PhD in experimental psychology and have been working for Swartz Center for Computational Neuroscience (SCCN, where EEGLAB was developed), University of California San Diego since 2011. For my academic publications, see my Google Scholar page linked below.

I have answered more than 2,100 times in the mailing lists for EEG researchers hosted by SCCN as an apprentice training mainly during my post-doc period. Here is a little episode. When I attended one of the international workshops as a lecturer, some of the audience were surprised to see me in person because there was a rumor that Makoto is a made-in-Japan AI bot to answer EEG-related questions on the mailing list.

Currently, I am actively maintaining mainly two EEGLAB Wiki pages (links below) dedicated for technical details for preprocessing EEG.

If you have EEG or ECoG data to analyze but do not have man power or background knowledge in signal processing or electrophysiology, please contact me. It will be much cheaper than hiring a post-doc and much less risk of getting stuck with the data. I will be also available for designing experiments, performing inferential statistics in general, and publishing papers from scientific journals.
