Professor of Biomedical Engineering and Neuroscience. Neural basis of cognition, cognitive development, deep brain stimulation.
- Sad news for all current graduate students out there. ChatGPT pretrained on scientific papers of the last two decades can now predict the results of your study. Oops. nature.com/articles/s4156…
- Unbelievably saddened and shocked to hear about @slimanjbensmaia 's passing away. I was just talking to him last week... My deepest condolences to his family, students, and loved ones.
- I know we are a little late to this party but our lab got the primate Neuropixel probes to work. Behold ~200 posterior parietal neurons.
- A milestone for the lab, today. The FDA has granted us approval to test our pattern of intermittent, cholinergic Deep Brain Stimulation, in human patients. It has been a privilege to be part of a wonderful team in this voyage. Next stop, IRB approval!
- I guess it's official. I'm moving to Vanderbilt next year.We are thrilled to welcome Prof. Christos Constantinidis to the Vanderbilt BME faculty, starting Jan. 1, 2021! Dr. Constantinidis is a world class neuroengineer who will also be a member of the @VanderbiltBrain and @VUMCeye research center. engineering.vanderbilt.edu/news/2020/neur…
- New review article: Timescales of learning in prefrontal cortex
- First article published since the lab moved to Vanderbilt! Nucleus Basalis stimulation improves working memory by stabilizing neural activity in the prefrontal cortex! (1/10)
- Today is my 35th day as faculty at Vanderbilt. My animal protocol has been approved. Primate cages have been bought and moved in. Animals have arrived. I am thoroughly impressed with how @VanderbiltU is getting things done.
- New preprint from the lab! Prefrontal neuronal dynamics in the absence of task execution (1/10)
- New paper from the lab! Prefrontal cortical plasticity during learning of cognitive tasks (1/10) nature.com/articles/s4146…
- I'm incredibly honored to be named a Stevenson Endowed Chair. I'm very grateful to the leadership of the Vanderbilt Schools of Engineering and Arts & Sciences for their support, and to all of my trainees and lab members whose work this honor recognizes as much as mine.Congrats to these distinguished engineering faculty members!
