Happy to introduce our new study in Nature Communications out of Cynthia Chestek showing high-velocity, simultaneous movements of two finger groups using a temporally-convolved, shallow-layer feedforward neural network. nature.com/articles/s4146…

🚨New paper out in Nature Medicine! Epidural Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) has shown amazing results for improving #MotorControl, but does it work in #Stroke? Here we explore the effect of SCS on upper limb motor control in chronic stroke hemiparesis (1/9) nature.com/articles/s4159…

Thrilled to announce l will be joining Dell Medical School at UT Austin as an assistant professor of neurosurgery.🤘 A special thanks to Dr. Nick Barbaro for this wonderful opportunity. UT Health Austin Texas ECE Texas BME Texas Engineering #BCI #DBS #neuromodulation

Amazing talk by Scott Ensel at #OHBM2023 on ´Signature of Consciousness in the Transient Dynamics of fMRI Brain Activity’ with Elvira Pirondini @bechirjarraya Dimitri Van De Ville and many others




Excited to share the completion of our latest project! Dive into our study exploring the feasibility and reliability of spinal cord functional connectivity at the lumosacral region. 📚 Dimitri Van De Ville @NawalKinany #SpinalCord #fMRI #Reliability biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…

Hello Twitter world🥳! This might sound crazy but today we share a paper showing that neurostimulation can revert motoneuron dysfunction produced by a neurodegenerative disease!🤯 Scott Ensel Serena Donadio Robert Friedlander Elvira Pirondini Marco Capogrosso medrxiv.org/content/10.110…👇

IT’S OUT NOW! Here, we characterized surface motor unit action potentials and interference pattern EMG signals obtained from 4 different leg muscles. We made this dataset available for those interested in modeling sEMG in neuromusculoskeletal simulators + journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…

Excited to share the first paper of my PhD under Jen Collinger! Here, we revisit the idea of motor somatotopy in humans implanted with intracortical electrode arrays as part of a clinical study in RNEL and Cortical Bionics Research Group 1/9

Hi X world! This might sound crazy but today we publish in Nature Medicine a paper showing that neurostimulation can revert motoneuron dysfunction produced by a neurodegenerative disease! @scottensel@dona_sere @DrRFriedlander@ElviraPirondini Marco Capogrosso nature.com/articles/s4159…

In a first, University of Pittsburgh and UPMC researchers use #spinalcordstimulation to reverse neural circuit dysfunction in an inherited degenerative motoneuron disease. Research in collaboration with: Pitt Health Sciences Pitt Neurosurgery UPMC PM&R Marco Capogrosso Robert Friedlander Elvira Pirondini

Improved muscle function, strength and fatigue measures were observed electrical spinal cord stimulation in individuals with spinal muscular atrophy Scott Ensel Serena Donadio Marco Capogrosso, Elvira Pirondini nature.com/articles/s4159…

I have a very cool life update: This fall, I will be starting a position as Assistant Professor at the University of Pittsburgh! RNEL UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh Pitt Neurosurgery
