After 10 years of implanting Utah Arrays in 5 participants with spinal cord injuries… we provide a methodological roadmap to target and evoke tactile finger sensations using intracortical microstimulation. John Downey Robert Gaunt Jen Collinger tinyurl.com/S1roadmap 🧵1/7

New in Nature Neuroscience, we present DPAD, a deep learning method for dynamical modeling of neural-behavioral data & dissociating behaviorally relevant dynamics. It enables diverse neurotech & neuroscience use-cases. 👏Omid Sani 💻github.com/ShanechiLab/DP… 📜nature.com/articles/s4159… 🧵⬇️

Tomorrow, I will be presenting the closed-loop brain stimulation framework we developed (MicroStimulation Optimization, MiSO) at the workshop "Causal perturbation based approaches to uncovering neural dynamics". Looking forward to seeing you there! #Coysne2025

🥳We are so glad to announce that our paper "Brain connectivity changes in response to cortical electrical stimulation in blind neuroprosthesis users" is now out in the Journal Cerebral Cortex. ⬇️Link to the paper: academic.oup.com/cercor/article…

For a long time, some have daydreamed about whether neural networks can learn to effectively synthesize stimulation patterns to write information into the brain. For the first time, we have demonstrated that 𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐚-𝐝𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐧𝐞𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐥 𝐯𝐢𝐚 𝐚
