Thrilled to be invited to the Trailblazer in Neuroscience series by @EurJNeurosci! ICNeuromodulation Charité PhD student Alessia Cavallo and I share our view on basal ganglia reinforcement for #Parkinsons with opportunities arising for #neurotechnology. doi.org/10.1111/ejn.16… 1/n


Preprint 🚨Spearheaded by @rm_koehler and co-lead by John-Dylan Haynes. We trained invasive brain signal decoders to elucidate shared therapeutic effects of #dopamine and deep brain stimulation for self-initiated actions in #Parkinson's disease. doi.org/10.1101/2023.1… 1/n🧵


Just came across this #BCI podcast neurotechpub from Paradromics Inc.. This episode features the first participant with an invasive BCI restoring movement and touch! open.spotify.com/episode/7oAxMj… Wish I knew that earlier! 😁 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…




Happy to present this week at the WIRED conference in #Paris a poster on responsive neuromodulation parameter optimization in epilepsy. Many thanks for the great collaboration with Mark Richardson MD PhD, Julian Neumann, Victoria Peterson and others from Brain Modulation Lab! wired-icm.org





New paper in npj Digital Medicine!🎺An LFP-based #sleep #staging model trained with >1,300 hours of recording from 121 patients–#BGOOSE🪿. With >85% ACC across patients, diseases, and even #DBS targets. #JianguoZhang #LumingLi Simon Little Julian Neumann & so on!🧵 rdcu.be/dHzzV




Can we stimulate brain networks identified using deep brain stimulation from the outside, in a non-invasive fashion? At Center For Brain Circuit Therapeutics, we believe, we can! Our first randomized clinical trial demonstrating this concept is just out in Movement Disorders Journal: doi.org/10.1002/mds.29… A🧵


📢OPEN PHD POSITION 📢 Looking for a PhD and interested in neuromodulation? Then come work with me, Petra Ritter and the Retune – CRC TRR 295 community on modeling deep brain stimulation from a network-science perspective 😊 Please retweet!
