@Sam_R_Nason, with @ParagGPatil and @ChestekLab, discusses brain-controlled functional electrical stimulation to restore finger movements
#SfN2022 @UMBME @umichneuro

[Matthew Willsey @matthew_willsey]

Happy to introduce our new study in @NatureComms out of @ChestekLab showing high-velocity, simultaneous movements of two finger groups using a temporally-convolved, shallow-layer feedforward neural network.
