4 yrs ago, I jumped from AI into Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) research—with almost zero neuroscience experience. Today, I'm at NPTL, one of the world's leading BCI labs, contributing to breakthroughs like restoring speech for people with ALS and developing a robust handwriting

Several positions open at UW (including in my lab) for this awesome program- importantly, students from nearby colleges/universities are welcome to apply (not just students at host schools)!

Two postdoc opportunities with my fantastic new colleague Carina Oehrn, involving ephys and cognition-focused DBS strategies in 1) HUMAN cerebellum (!) and 2) human basal ganglia. 👇

🧠➡️⌨️ New BrainGate Team work led by Justin. I believe this is the new STOTA for hand imagery-based BCI communication in the literature [i.e. not counting Neuralink cursor typing], at 22 words per minute with 1.6% WER. 👇

Tune in to Science Friday today as host Flora Lichtman, Sergey Stavisky, and I discuss brain-computer interfaces. Hear how BCIs could enable people with paralysis to control virtual quadcopters with their thoughts and restore communication w/ attempted speech. sciencefriday.com/segments/brain…

Amazing to see productized BCIs continuing to mature, and now working well for someone who is locked in! BCIs will improve many, many lives in the years to come.

This is why we do what we do: show what's possible at the medical frontier through academic pilot trials in order to de-risk the industry then refining and scaling these discoveries to reach patients!
