Reinhold Scherer is Assistant Professor and Assistant Director head of the Institute for Knowledge Discovery, Graz University of Technology, Austria. He is member of the Laboratory for Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI-Lab) at Graz University of Technology and of the Institute for Neurological Rehabilitation and Research at the rehabilitation center Judendorf-Strassengel, Austria.
In 2008 he received his PhD in computer science from Graz University of Technology, where, beginning in 2001, he worked on non-invasive electroencephalogram-based (EEG) brain-computer interfacing (BCI). He spend the years from 2008 to 2010 as postdoctoral researcher at the Department for Computer Science & Engineering, University of Washington, Seattle, USA, and was member of the Neural Systems and the Neurobotics Laboratories at the University of Washington.
