translating neurotechnologies into therapeutics to help people overcome debilitating brain disorders

Joined December 2014
New @UCSF work published in @NatureComms shows that @ChangLabUcsf 's brain-computer interface allows a person who has lost the ability to speak or type to spell out full sentences from a large vocabulary by silently attempting to speak: nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

If you had the equivalent of low spatial resolution (eg 8mm voxels, only in cortex) fMRI in your lab at the cost of an EEG device - what would you do with it?

Who is doing the best neurofeedback research? And how much of it is making it to the clinic?

BU BME is searching for a tenure track assistant professor working at the intersection of neurotechnologies, data analytics, and cognitive neuroscience. academicjobsonline.org/ajo/j… Please spread the word.
Great opportunities to do impactful mission driven work. I had the privilige and pleasure of working closely with Pedro when I was at APL, and would jump at any opportunity to work with him again : ) Anyone wanting to put their data science, AI/ML, a…lnkd.in/e8Kisbs3

Can’t imagine a better guiding light for BCI technologies than Eddie Chang, who I feel privileged to call both colleague and friend. Brilliant, compassionate, and humble - an uncommon combination, and exactly what the worked needs more of right now. lnkd.in/gUHMfPbh

Great opportunity - highly encourage anyone interested in neurotech, prosthetics, and/ or XR interaction to take a close look. lnkd.in/gSjX-U8n
State of Stroke rehabilitation I’ve been reading a bit about stroke rehabilitation, and from what I read: 1. Over 500k people in the US per year are expected to have upper limb impairment due to stroke, and few are expected to recover full function 2.…lnkd.in/g2P5pjUf
To help address global mental health, it seems reasonable to seek to optimize both efficiency and efficacy of clinical trials to get more tools to more people sooner. Any strong arguments against this premise? Assuming the premise is true, what are the *…lnkd.in/gN-bgSqf

Our high-sensitivity diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS) paper is in Neurophotonics! A 1024-pixel single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) camera gives 32x SNR gain, and can scale up with more pixels! lnkd.in/dSGau4n

Last week I raised concerns about using #gpt3 in production because it can easily output toxic language that propagates harmful biases. I thought it was a pretty uncontroversial stance but the responses ranged from complete misunderstanding of AI to total irresponsibility. 1/13

The curfew order applies only to public places and streets. These thugs fired on her and her family illegally. They are a danger to the public and need to be locked up.
