Non-White scientists appear on fewer editorial boards, spend more time under review, and receive fewer citations | PNAS pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

I'm in a book!! This collection from Nerd Nite presenters has it all: science facts, terrible puns, what else do you need in life?

How did I miss this wonderful publication by some of Pittsburgh's brightest sharing their experiences as women working in neural engineering? Another great example of the talent we have collaborating across boundaries from University of Pittsburgh and Carnegie Mellon University! frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

Liang, Arianna Damiani, Del Brocco, Maria Jantz, Lee Fisher, Gaunt, Marco Capogrosso, Elvira Pirondini (RNEL), Rogers and Lempka (U-M BME) have given a systematic review of computational models for the design of spinal cord stimulation therapies! 📜buff.ly/44TKRFO

Out now in Cell! doi.org/10.1016/j.cell… Historically marginalized student representation drastically drops from undergrad to grad school. Are underrepresented students unqualified? Or are grad school admissions unnecessarily confusing, costly, & gatekeeping? 1/🧵

4 years ago, I began working with other PhD researchers develop a program to help ALL underrepresented students strategically for STEM PhD applications. The program has helped 443 students matriculate into graduate programs. Read our strategy and recommendations here ⬇️⬇️

Check out our new #preprint on discriminating levels of #consciousness during anesthesia! We demonstrate that temporal dynamics of functional networks can be a reliable and robust cortical signature of consciousness (1/2) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

How do people with motor paralysis regain movement using spinal cord stimulation (SCS)? Genis and I studied the mechanisms that enable voluntary motor control during SCS after paralysis medrxiv.org/content/10.110… #scs ‼️Spoiler‼️: SCS does NOT facilitate supraspinal inputs…

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

6 main figs and 5 supplementary figs .

Thrilled to share our new paper with Nature Communications! Grateful for Elvira Pirondini's incredible guidance and the amazing collaboration with Jonathan Ho. Couldn't have asked for a better team! #Stroke #Neuromodulation Thank you RNEL UPMC PM&R Pitt Neurosurgery for the support!
