1/4 Check out our preprint, “Non-invasive brain-machine interface control with artificial intelligence copilots.” (biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…). We demonstrate a paralyzed participant has non-invasive neural control of a cursor and a robotic arm (video: youtube.com/watch?v=SFQDkMmc…).

Non-invasive brain-machine interface control with artificial intelligence copilots

Motor brain-machine interfaces (BMIs) decode neural signals to help people with paralysis move and communicate. Even with important advances in the last two decades, BMIs face key obstacles to...

HOW this happened --for the trainees-- I discovered HHMI before I knew what research was. HHMI was the ’96 Chicago Bulls. I worked for 2 decades to hone my craft at @UMBC @DukeNeuro @MiguelNicolelis @DukePsychiatry . My first chance to make the HHMI squad was 2015.

How can this be the state of affairs in healthcare? While doctors and nurses are furloughed, hospital administrators are getting bonuses. Ugh. #doctorsinpolitics.
The New York Times
@nytimes8 Jun 2020
Dozens of the top recipients of U.S. government coronavirus aid to hospitals have laid off, furloughed or cut the pay of tens of thousands of employees. Many have also continued to pay their top executives millions. nyti.ms/30kDg4H
