Thrilled and grateful to share our paper out today in @Nature
(rdcu.be/fbd7J). We used a brain machine interface (brain computer interface, #BCI) to causally test the origin of the high-gamma band of local field potentials #LFP. See explanation by @TH_Alec_Lei below
🎉 Excited to share our new paper in Nature: “Active Dissociation of Intracortical Spiking and High Gamma Activity.” 🧠
Huge thanks to my advisors first: @SlutzkyLab @joshuaiglaser
Paper link: nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
Here are some digests that walk you through the results 👇🏼

We're hiring for a new project! If you are excited to work at the forefront of brain-computer interfaces, we would love to hear from you! #BCI sites.northwestern.edu/sneup… @joshuaiglaser

Our paper is now in print in @Nature . If you're interested in local field potentials, especially #high-gamma activity, and/or #spikes, check it out! TL;DR: High gamma is not mainly filtered spikes, but mainly summed nearby PSPs.

Excited that our RCT on myoelectric interface for #neurorehabilitation (MINT) conditioning is published in Neurorehab & Neural Repair!
In 59 chronic stroke survivors, #MINT improved arm movement more than control and by a clinically sig amt.

(2/n) Participants kept improving 1 mo later. They performed 315 reps/day, >10x a typical therapy session. It's incredibly fulfilling to hear feedback from participants who experienced improved arm movement from the intervention.

New work from our lab showing the human frontal lobe receives fast, low-level speech information in parallel with early speech areas!

NEWS: Massive budget cuts for US science proposed again by Trump administration
"It's an extinction-level event for science".
The US government is proposing massive cuts to almost every branch of science, from NASA to the National Institutes of Health. NSF would completely eliminate the social, economic and behavioral sciences directorate.
This would decimate the world's leading scientific system.

Update! Now out in print, with much more scientific details on representational plasticity and stability with neurofeedback that allows for long-term BCI control. cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092…
This study would not have been posssible if not for the enduring spirt of BCI participants
!! New iBCI paper!!
Using ECoG, we studied the interplay between representational stability and plasticity of a repertoire of simple mvmts. Despite drift, we could translate these principles for BCI control of a robotic arm, with high proficiency and stability for 7mos (1/n)

The NIH’s new imposed standard indirect cost rate threatens life-saving brain and behavior research that benefits millions of Americans. SfN, with other scientific organizations, urge reversal of this policy and implore Congress to protect critical research infrastructure.
