🧠 🤖 #SfN25 - these amazing trainees are pioneering multifunctional brain-computer interfaces and deep inference of multi-area dynamics!

Garrett Stanley and I are leading the recruitment of a senior faculty position in BME at Georgia Tech and Emory, focused on Neural Engineering. Come talk to us, we're looking for a leader in research and training, in areas with neurotranslation potential.

Decoding inner speech. A volunteer who cannot speak imagines saying the sentence on the screen. A computer decodes the signals from an implant in her brain and correctly guesses what she's saying to herself. Here's my story (gift link): nyti.ms/3UpEiat

An instantaneous voice-synthesis neuroprosthesis - Nature A brain-to-voice neuroprosthesis enables a man with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis to synthesize his voice in real time by decoding neural activity, demonstrating the potential of brain–computer interfaces to enable people with paralysis to speak intelligibly and expressively.

World first: brain implant lets man speak with expression ― and sing Device translates thought to speech in real time.

A man with a severe speech disability is able to speak expressively and sing using a brain implant that translates his neural activity into words almost instantly.

BRAND: a platform for closed-loop experiments with deep network models - IOPscienceSearch BRAND: a platform for closed-loop experiments with deep network models, Ali, Yahia H, Bodkin, Kevin, Rigotti-Thompson, Mattia, Patel, Kushant, Card, Nicholas S, Bhaduri, Bareesh, Nason-Tomaszewski, Samuel R, Mifsud, Domenick M, Hou, Xianda, Nicolas, Claire, Allcroft, Shane, Hochberg, Leigh R, Au Yong, Nicholas, Stavisky, Sergey D, Miller, Lee E, Brandman, David M, Pandarinath, Chethan

And if this is your first time hearing of BRAND, check out our JNE paper, where we explained the design philosophy and did a deep dive on system validation: iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...

About a year and a half ago, we open-sourced BRAND, our real-time software platform for BCIs. Since then, our community of devs has grown far beyond BrainGate, so we're starting a Discord server to host it. All are welcome, whether you're building or just curious! discord.gg/XfqpNJ7tme

the Few-shot Algorithms for Consistent Neural Decoding (FALCON) Benchmark

How can we build BCIs that operate robustly in the face of nonstationarities?

Our @neuripsconf.bsky.social Datasets and Benchmarks paper introduces the Few-shot Algorithms for Consistent Neural Decoding (FALCON) Benchmark!

Led by Brianna Karpowicz and @joelye.bsky.social
