📣 Last week I’ve successfully defended my PhD thesis!
A huge thank you for their guidance to my advisors @_smicera and @SolaimanShokur and to my acquired advisor Prof. Makin who hosted me at the @plasticity_lab!
Here a picture with the terrific jury that evaluated my work!
New in Science #Robotics: In virtual and real-world testing, users completed exercises with a new human-machine interface system with an extra robotic arm using gaze and breathing contractions. @GiDominijanni@_smicera@SolaimanShokur@LeonardoPollina https://t.co/JqKApusmPD
Our work on human augmentation with extra limbs is finally out ‼️
The outcome of an amazing teamwork, supported by MSCA Programme @neutouch
Shoutout to second co-authors @LeonardoPollina and @pdanielleal, to our PIs @SolaimanShokur and @_smicera and to all other co-authors!
🚨 Ever wondered what would it be like to have a third arm?
Check our new paper, finally out in @SciRobotics ✨, where we investigate human motor augmentation!

Can you move your ears? For over a year, this was the catchphrase of @pdanielleal - our amazing Ph.D. student from Sao Paulo.
Our paper, published today in @FrontiersIn Neurorobotics shows you how :)

with @_smicera JeanFaber @TNE_LAB
Our very own Prof Tamar Makin and @DaniClode are presenting tomorrow at the @AAASmeetings along with @GiDominijanni and Lee Miller @PresNCM in our Homo Cyberneticus discussion about the future of augmentation. Tomorrow at 11.30am, room 145, Washington Convention Centre
Some thoughts on phantom limb pain, mirror boxes and the brain. Inviting you to think more critically about some of the most popular approaches to understanding and treating phantom limb pain.

@ETognoli@_smicera Emmanuelle I'm so sorry I missed this! Meanwhile the tweet was deleted and I'm not 100% sure about the topic of the conversation, but yes! We are working on the bidirectional control of extra limbs and looking forward to share the results!
Great experience with our fellows and invited panelists in the Neutouch symposium today at @IEEEembs NER21 conference. Very interesting talks and discussions about touch in #biology#prosthetics and #robotics. Thanks to all the attendees!
TOMORROW interesting symposium with amazing speakers #NER21

We are happy to announce we will be at the @IEEEembs@IEEEBrain#NER21 conference with a mini-symposium about touch in biology, prosthetics, and robotics.
We will discuss how the field can benefit from cross-contamination with our fellows and excellent panelists. Don't miss it
