New UC San Francisco work published in Nature Communications 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/s4146…

Positioning of electrodes needs to adapt to research and medical questions - not vice versa. This is exactly what was done with our Utah array in a series of recent awake tumor resection procedures at TU München, creating a surgery with added precision. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

👉In a🆕Comment, Markus Ploner et al. suggest 3 strategic adjustments in #neurotechnology research to consider the scope, scalability and stakeholders, thereby accelerating translation to patient care. In our 🥇issue. @lab_jacob TU München Neurosurgery - TU Munich nature.com/articles/s4422…

Recruiting postdocs! Please get in touch if you wanna discuss projects on biologically plausible learning through TUM's global postdoctoral fellowship tum.de/en/about-tum/c…

Interested in speech neuroprostheses? Come to the #SfN24 minisymposium organized by Christian Herff and I. We have a fantastic lineup chosen to survey the many directions this field can go in: different recording modalities, languages, and behaviors (e.g. attempted vs. imagined speech).

#SfN24 was special! Big thanks to Sergey Stavisky & Christian Herff for hosting the speech neuroprostheses minisymposium. It was great fun to present alongside Jessie R. Liu, Erin Kunz, @YuanningLi, and the hosts. All the feedback Laura Schiffl and I received was truly encouraging!✨

Excited to share our new study on inner speech out now in Cell Press! W/ Benyamin MK (co-lead) Frank Willett (senior) doi.org/10.1016/j.cell…
