Read our latest work using TUS in Parkinson’s disease where we demonstrated both suppression of pathological beta and improvements in bradykinesia.

Our recent work on accessible transcranial electrical dose standardization has been published in Scientific Reports 🥳 We use parameters like age and head size to individualize tES dosages, without the need for neuroimaging or simulations. Read the full paper here: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Last week I gave my first public talk on non-invasive brain stimulation. It was an exciting (but slightly terrifying) experience. I spoke about how we can change brain activity without surgery or drugs and the incredible potential of these technologies!

EU reclassification of non-medical tES/TMS to Class III (high-risk) was based on shockingly weak evidence. Full details are here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

If you use brain (or nerve!) stimulation methods in human (or animal!) neuroscience, then maybe you need (to be on) this list... #BrainStim (please ask to be added) go.bsky.app/395SGxh

For those who don’t know, focused research organisations (FROs) strike a balance between the openness of research, the dynamism of start-ups, and the scale of industry. If you have a big idea in neurotechnology, consider applying to open an FRO in the UK!

What % of people with tetraplegia would turn down an implanted device to recover hand movement? Surprisingly (to me at least) it was 29% in this survey! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

What will the world look in 30 years? I’m not so sure about this prediction: “By 2055, she thinks many people will be "cognitively connected" - a hive mind of humans and technology via servers, which will help in the sharing of ideas.” www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Our new publication in Human Brain Mapping is a roadmap to implanting stimulation electrodes to evoke tactile sensations on the fingers of Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) users. We share the plan and results for 5 study participants across a decade at 2 sites. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
Progression of implant plan from placement map, to surgical image, to stimulation results.

Human cortical pyramidal neurons are larger, with more elaborate branching, and distinct nonlinear biophysical properties compared to rat cortical pyramidal neurons. Are they more functionally complex? Could that boost the human brain’s computational power? and is that what makes us human? (1/11)

Non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) is a promising but challenging field of research. I recently joined Bluesky, so thought I would share one of my recent papers exploring electrical, magnetic, ultrasonic and light-based brain stimulation and where the field might go next ⬇️

Effects of 5Hz-rTUS (tbTUS) on corticospinal excitability are less robust than we initially thought. Check out my new preprint with @drcarysevans.bsky.social and Po-Yu Fong showing that offline excitatory TUS-TMS effects don't replicate. Thread below 👇 doi.org/10.1101/2024...
