We measure what the mind and body do.
Our core paradigm is biofeedback and neurofeedback: reading information from the brain and body in real time and feeding it back through a screen, a sound or a space, so people can express themselves, train their minds and act on their environment.
What drives us.
MuLabs is a neurotechnology lab in Lisbon. We measure the brain and body, explain what the data shows and turn that signal into training, prevention, art and research.
MuLabs was born as a spin-off of academic work in neuroscience and turns research into services, products and experiences.
Six pillars, one method: measure, map, train and measure again.
We measure before we promise.
Measure
The brain and body, with EEG, qEEG and physiology.
Map
The data read by MuLabs PRYSM and explained in plain words.
Train
Neurofeedback, breathwork and experiences that feed the signal back in real time.
Re-measure
A second recording shows what changed, read honestly.
None of what we do is medicine: it is clinical psychology, prevention, art and applied research, always with data.
The story so far.
muArts begins, linking brain technology with art and design. First public installations in Porto: Cosmic Gate, Outros Olhares and Get Set Arts Festival.
The “Synergy of Empathy” installation in Porto, and a dance performance in Santo Tirso driven by brain-computer-interface graphics.
“Will-Racer”, a brain-controlled serious toy, is shown at Future Places, Porto.
“SonicMinds” is built at the CTM Festival in Berlin. MusicBricks Incubation Award for “#FindingSomethingBondingSounding”.
TEDxPorto talk. EEG in the film of Farfetch’s “Touch the Impossible” campaign. Nomination for the S+T+ARTS Prize.
Brussels: the first collaborative neurofeedback setting at a European Commission event. “Taste Discovery” pairs EEG with a Port wine tasting.
Abbey Road Studios Red Hackathon, London. “Vision Quest”: EEG built into a wearable piece with ElektroCouture. KTH Stockholm Innovation Award.
SXSW, Austin: participants’ EEG drives visuals projected onto a car. Web Summit in Lisbon and a Tech Open Air satellite event in Berlin.
Ars Electronica, “In Kepler’s Gardens”: on the Philosopher’s Roundtable about ethics in AI. “In-Volution”, by TRANS-LATE, wins the Mental Health track of The Global Hack.
A pilot study of a sleep soundtrack, measured with 19-channel EEG. Mindfulness-neurofeedback sessions at the Being Gathering Camp, Boom Festival.
The Voxel Cube at Boom Festival, at Design Hotels’ Further Lisbon and at the Biohacker Summit in Amsterdam.
MIDEM+, Cannes: five EEG headsets read at once on stage with Moullinex, Lala Tamar and Maalem Khalid Sansi. A pilot study of Alchemy Rewire breathwork.
The Voxel Cube at Milan Design Week. The “Lupuna” forest-room study at Therme Euskirchen, Germany. First Ultra-State Neuroflexibility retreat with Alchemy Rewire.
MuLabs PRYSM, our analysis engine, is created. Breath Lab begins with Alchemy Rewire: eight activations in five countries by 2026.
Francisco Marques-Teixeira is elected President of APNF. MuLabs sessions at Scorpios Bodrum and at Garbicz Festival.
Neuroscience you can see, measure and train.
The people behind the data.
Clinical psychology, electrophysiology, operations and art: the team that measures, explains and creates.
Artists and collaborators.
Neurofeedback is a technique of clinical psychology, delivered by a clinical psychologist. It is not a medical technique and does not replace medical care.
Talks, performances and projects.
In the press.
The MuLabs app is on its way.
An app for the MuLabs community and for people in our programmes: practices, programmes, self-tracking, community and a place to learn, built on the methods we use every day. It is not available yet.
