A recent article on our work on noninvasive high-density EEG outperforming invasive ECoG in epilepsy surgical evaluation because of spatial limitations of ECoG grids medicalxpress.com/news/2018-07-i… (warning: this work is so far based on simulations).

Excited to have submitted my first first-author paper, on spinal cord stimulation (SCS) for bladder control! The quick version: Bladder dysfunction is a huge problem, and we used SCS to selectively target nerves that could help restore function! preprint: bit.ly/2Rw9nM8

Congratulations to RNEL Pitt Bioengineering student Ritesh Kumar for winning the best pre-doctoral poster award at Pitt Health Sciences and UPMC PM&R Rehab Institute Research Day! Ritesh is doing important work on chronic implants of electrode nets for controlling bladder function. ⚡️💙💛

I am a PhD candidate now, passed my thesis proposal today exactly after 3 years I joined the RNEL Thanks for listening to a way over the time talk. Thanks to my committee members Lee Fisher Robert Gaunt NTE Lab @MLBdoc . Hope to not make same mistakes again!

Could two followers please copy and re-post this tweet? I'm trying to demonstrate that someone is always there, especially at this time of year. Call 800-273-8255 (National Suicide Prevention Helpline US). Just two. Any two. Copy, not retweet. Let’s all look out for each other.

Today marks 10 years since we started our intracortical BCI trial in Pittsburgh University of Pittsburgh & UPMC PM&R. We would like to thank Jan for her dedication and contributions to research and for being an inspiration to so many. She is truly a pioneer! 🦾🧠🦸‍♀️ (a thread: 1/5)

Thanks for all the support and an amazing experience. Robert Gaunt RNEL

Exciting update! Starting Mar. 1, I will be an Assistant Professor at the University of Utah! I have a joint appointment with the Departments of Biomedical Engineering and Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation. #AcademicTwitter #WomenInSTEM UtahBME Neilsen Rehabilitation Hospital University of Utah

Congratulations ⁦Angelica Herrera, PhD⁩ and fellow ⁦RNEL⁩ PhD graduates, ⁦Bailey Petersen and ⁦Ritesh Kumar⁩! Very proud of you all!

We are excited to share that we have received the FDA’s approval to launch our first-in-human clinical study! This is the result of incredible work by the Neuralink team in close collaboration with the FDA and represents an important first step that will one day allow our

How do people with motor paralysis regain movement using spinal cord stimulation (SCS)? Genis and I studied the mechanisms that enable voluntary motor control during SCS after paralysis medrxiv.org/content/10.110… #scs ‼️Spoiler‼️: SCS does NOT facilitate supraspinal inputs…

The first human received an implant from @Neuralink yesterday and is recovering well. Initial results show promising neuron spike detection.

We have received Breakthrough Device Designation from the FDA for Blindsight. Join us in our quest to bring back sight to those who have lost it. Apply to our Patient Registry and openings on our career page neuralink.com

We’re excited to announce the approval and launch of a new feasibility trial to extend BCI control using the N1 Implant to an investigational assistive robotic arm. This is an important first step towards restoring not only digital freedom, but also physical freedom. More info
