Ian Malone, PhD

Data Scientist II at Meta interested in neural interfaces and machine learning

[nicolas kunigk @NKunigk]

Excited to share the first paper of my PhD under @jenpgh!

Here, we revisit the idea of motor somatotopy in humans implanted with intracortical electrode arrays as part of a clinical study in @RNELabs and @Corbionics

With intracortical microelectrodes for BCIs 🖥️🧠getting smaller and smaller comes the question:
How can we safely stimulate with these devices?
We investigate how synchronous ICMS can reduce charge per site.
Thanks to first co-author @NKunigk, and @IanGMalone, @OttoKev

@may_mansy @OttoKev @LabDale @GManBreathe @butsonc Thanks @may_mansy! I remember you mentoring me in my first neural engineering research experience as an undergraduate volunteer in the Oweiss Lab. Time flies!

[Ian Malone, PhD @IanGMalone]

@AzraBihorac @OttoKev @LabDale @GManBreathe @butsonc @UFMedicine @Parisa__Rashidi Thank you @AzraBihorac! Looking forward to staying up to date on the exciting work coming from your group!

[Kevin Otto @OttoKev]

Congrats to Dr. @IanGMalone! He presented a fantastic PhD defense today. In my intro I called him the "most diverse PhD student" we've had in the lab. His biosketch below is evidence. Have fun at Meta!

Thanks to committee members: @LabDale @GManBreathe @butsonc and Erin Patrick

New research by @UF neuroscientists found that a form of neuromodulation elicited respiratory neuroplasticity, or ability of neurons & neural networks to adapt, after spinal cord injury. Rat-model study published in eNeuro is latest MBI Research Snapshot. https://t.co/AL3QSxmz5Z

[Erica Dale - Lablyfe @LabDale]

Our first Dale Lab research paper is finally out! https://t.co/7tUNnn55FJ @IanGMalone @MiaNKelly @MarissNash @RLNosacka @OttoKev @UFBreathe Stay tuned for what’s next 😎 @alyssa_mickle

[UF.BREATHE @UFBreathe]

Check out this fresh new pub by BREATHE Center Steering Committee member @LabDale, T32 alumnus @IanGMalone, and mentor @OttoKev. We love seeing those Brain & Spinal Cord Injury Bridge Funds at work! @UFMBI @ECEflorida @UFBrainInjury

For our final #GradStudentAppreciationWeek highlight, we'd like to recognize BREATHE T32 predoc student, Ian Malone! You can learn more about @IanGMalone & his research alongside @OttoKev here: https://t.co/xApuQuZNKe #MoreThanAGradStudent @ufogpd

[UF.BREATHE @UFBreathe]

Congratulations to our BREATHE T32 trainees for presenting such fascinating research! 👏

[Morgan Urdaneta, PhD @MorganEUrdaneta]

I’m very happy to announce that the first paper from my PhD dissertation just got accepted for publication🎉
We found that the parameters of intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) of S1 depend on the interfacing cortical depth.
Spoiler: We even coined a new term

We can no longer exploit the resources of this earth—the trees, the water, and other natural resources—without any care for coming generations. Common sense tells us that unless we change, we won’t survive. This Earth Day let’s resolve to live in harmony with nature.
