The lab conducts research into using intracortical brain-computer interfaces (iBCIs) as a potential therapy for people with severe speech and motor disabilities. Our research focuses on developing multi-effector control for fine motor movements and digital interfaces using non-linear decoding algorithms and novel approaches to account for neural instability.
We are also interested in computational neuroscience and explore the neural dynamics underlying motor control.
BCI Clinical Trials: Information about BCI clinical trials is available here.
Thrilled to announce our recent work published in Nature Medicine: A high-performance brain–computer interface for finger decoding and quadcopter game control in an individual with paralysis
We had the opportunity to perform the first in-human, temporary implantation of a high-capacity brain-computer interface by Paradromics - a big step forward in BCI innovation. Check out the video:
