How my reviewer sees this who said BRAIN INITIATIVE is only about new neural technologies, and no new technology is proposed: braininitiative.nih.gov/news-events/bl…

Momentum Scaling Award to 6 Pitt PIs to establish a Parallel Translation R&D program. The goal is to understand how ICMS interacts with the brain and how to implement it for precise use in the clinic and basic science research across scale and species. utimes.pitt.edu/news/brain-sti…

A good response to the “no treatments yet” critique is: The double-helix DNA paper was in 1953, and that led to biologic drugs in the 1980s and on (for MS, cancer, CF, etc). Basic research by def’n is the research that brings huge, life-changing benefits … decades later.

1/ Our bioRxiv on optimal placement of high-channel visual prostheses in the human retinotopic visual cortex is up! As #neurotech matures, there will be a critical need for large-scale prediction & optimization of visual coverage in implant users tinyurl.com/optimalVision

As someone who’s been mentoring future PIs for a while, I often get asked how I choose post-docs for my lab and if I have a crystal ball for predicting their success. Well, here is the scoop: I don’t! But here are some things I look for: (1/8)

Due today (Aug 1st), submit RFI to [email protected] Responses should use the subject “RFI - Coordinated Neural Stimulating and Recording Efforts"
