Thanks to all the hard work of our team here at Mayo, we were able to uncover a novel motor association area in the depths of the central sulcus, disrupting our nearly century-old understanding of the organization of the primary motor cortex. nature.com/articles/s4159…
What if you could drive using your mind? On #NewsyInTheLoop, @lindseytheis shares how a team of experts is getting a quadriplegic man on the racetrack, helping him drive for the first time in his life.
.#DriveByThought collab between @BuonicontiFund / #TheMiamiProject and @FalciAdaptive at @PPIR thanks to German's informed consent and @UMneurosurgery's expertise with implanted #BrainComputerInterface.
'It responds to what you think. It's just incredible' — Thanks to groundbreaking technology, this paralyzed man is able to drive a NASCAR car using only his mind 🧠
It was such a pleasure working with @BuonicontiFund and DireenTech on the unveiling of the Falci Adaptive Motorstports Brain-Controlled driving technology. Thank you for helping us get German driving successfully!
What a ride! German, @DrDWMcMillan, and I spent this week at @PPIR together with @FalciAdaptive and more to allow German to accelerate a racecar by thought. Took many people to reach this milestone. @BuonicontiFund @iahncajigas @UMneurosurgery

Brain-Computer Interfaces for Spinal Cord Injury
Today I built a special hat 🤠 It has a motor + propeller on it that spins faster the harder I focus! The motor's power is connected to my Raspberry Pi which is running a Node server I wrote that's actively capturing my brainwaves over WiFi via a @neurosity. Check it out ✨
In the first phase of the Drive By Thought program, German Zuniga will be able to accelerate the vehicle by thought. Brain waves will feed signals to control throttle movements. This will be accomplished with the use of a microchip implanted in the brain to steer & brake the car.
Thank you to @NASSspine for featuring our article “#braincomputerinterfaces for #spinalcordinjury: Technology Progressing Toward a Clinical Reality” on the cover this month. @kevin_cdavis #neurosurgery @umiamimedicine
Other good one is remote screen sharing. Often I’m in meetings where group presentations results in one person saying “next” quite a bit. Allowing others to control your screen removes the need for this audible.
Of all the meeting platforms we've used over the last 2 years, Zoom is the one I love most. Most of us think we know Zoom inside out. But we don't. Here are 7 Zoom hacks you probably haven't heard of, but you'll be glad you now know. 🧵👇
I just learned that the clipboard between MacOS and iOS is shared. I didn’t know I needed this.
We are teaming up with @Columbia's neural decoder MINT, which will be integrated into the MoveAgain software, enabling patients' thoughts to be translated more optimally into prosthetic movements: prn.to/3rCmOdb

Excited and grateful for the chance to learn some new things with this project and push improvements in our BCI system
ANNOUNCING the 2021-2022 IDSC Fellows: Ashley Cook @UMiamiRSMAS, Julian Dallmeier @umiamimedicine, Kevin Davis and Mingyue Wu @EngineerUMiami, all PhD students. Hear their project proposals 12/7 3PM. Open to @univmiami Fac/Staff/Students (via Zoom) events.miami.edu/event/2021-202…
Our latest paper is online! We compared opinions of people with LIS, their caregivers and BCI researchers, and show that they not always agree. All the more reason to keep listening... tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
I just spent 30 minutes filling out a summer camp clearance form for one of my patients. Let’s do the math for such time wasted: 10 million physicians x 30 minutes/day x 200 working days/year = 1 billion hours a year that are wasted without a more efficient medical record system.
Join us June 7-9 for vBCI!
Less than two weeks until #vBCI2021 plenary lectures by Paul Sajda, Maryam Shanechi, Steven Laureys, Sebastian Halder and Robert Gaunt! It’s not too late to register. bcisociety.org/bci-meeting/re… @MaryamShanechi @DrStevenLaureys @HalderSebastian @robert_gaunt1
A mark of intelligence I really respect is when a person in a room full of smart people stops everyone and says, “I don’t understand that. Can you explain?”
Whenever you use open source software (or any software, really) remember the little things you take for granted are the result of thousands of hours of development by thousands of random people you’ve never met
I have this well established practice: when the entire household goes to bed, I do curl development for two more hours. Every day, for 23 years and counting. Sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less. Whatever you do consistently for 23 years end up a lot.
