Silvestro Micera, from EPFL’s Neuro-X institute, is tricking the brain to have phantom thermo sensations in amputated limbs. “Reconnecting prosthesis to the brain greatly improves control and mobility.” In conclusion, science fiction becoming reality. #SRD2023

It's happening! Applications are open for our Pilot January to February course in Computational Neuroscience! This is a smaller course in only the Americas timezone, so spots will fill up quickly! 💨 Link in comments. 👇

How do you know if something is wet/dry? Humans have no dedicated sensor for humidity. Instead, we rely -mainly- on thermal cues. Do the test: sit on a cold bench, your first reaction is: The bench is Wet! @ploumitsakou, Muheim Jonathan, Silvestro Micera, Francesco Iberite , @thermosenselab

Avec cette main bionique, les personnes amputées comme Fabrizio peuvent ressentir la température et distinguer le contact humain du contact artificiel. Non invasive et révolutionnaire, cette technologie marque une avancée significative dans les prothèses. cell.com/med/fulltext/S…

We have an open post-doc position to work on an exciting international project (with Silvestro Micera, solaiman.shokur & Prof. Boari Coelho) on freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease and develop a new non-invasive temporal interference strategy to alleviate these symptoms. More info👇

1/ 🚀 Can you train to use an extra robotic arm (XRA) and generalize that skill to different environments? Our new study with solaiman.shokur, Daniel Leal Pinheiro et al: advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.10… explores whether training with an XRA leads to true skill generalization.
