Together with their help, Robert Friedlander, me and our outstanding colleagues Elvira Pirondini, Lee Fisher, Doug Weber and others put together a pilot trial exploring the use of spinal neurotechnology to improve movements in people with Type3 SMA clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT05… 2/3


Before we all start dissecting the neuralink show and tell tomorrow I wanted to share some of the other neurotech startups that I think are doing cool stuff (besides us at motif neurotech of course!) It’s a great #neurotechrevolution community!! 🧵




Spinal cord stimulation technology developed by Douglas Weber in collaboration with the University of Pittsburgh offers new hope for people living with impairments that would otherwise be considered permanent. Doug Weber engineering.cmu.edu/news-events/ne…

In conclusion #teamscience accelerates progress, is in the interest of universities and tax payers, it is about open science and less egos and more fun so it would be great if we could stop getting negative feedback when we try to build team work. That’s it John W. Krakauer I did it ❤️


Witnessing brilliance in action at IEEE EMBC 2023! Our talented rockstars Nikhil Verma, Luigi Borda, and Nikole Chetty from @CMU_Mech and Rohit Bose from RNEL are rocking the stage and posters with their cutting-edge research! Proud of our team #EMBC2023




Excited to announce that the NML team will be showcasing some amazing research at #sfn2024 Society for Neuroscience (SfN) 🤓! Mark your calendars 🗓️ and join us as a few of our members present their groundbreaking work🧐. Stay tuned for more details☺️! @cmuneurosci CMU Mechanical Engineering #research #science


Had such an amazing time at #SfN24. It was an absolute honor to give a talk about our most recent work on using #spinalcordstimulation to restore upper limb movement after #stroke in front of an exceptional and engaged audience.

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…
