I was always excited about speech synthesis algorithms for designing the next generation of speech Brain-Computer-Interface systems. This will be one of the biggest breakthroughs for human-computer interaction technologies. Not only for paralyzed patients. #neuroscience#tech
An astrocyte (green) reaching out to a blood vessel (yellow and red). The neurons (blue) are not in direct contact with the vessel and rely on astrocytes for the transport of nutrients of waste.

Do you specialize in glial cell development, glia in aging and dementia, glial adaptations to injury and disease or similar research? Then we have a conference for you!
First quadruple neuron recordings since the @mcgillu lockdown in March. Very excited to be back in the @pj_sjostrom lab to study synaptic plasticity and axonal translation!

Introducing the new exciting work on NMDARs by Lituma et al. in the Castillo group. https://t.co/7HNQc4JQc2
Conversion from #MCI to #alzheimerdisease disease is difficult to predict, yet is important for clinical trials. @SebastianPalmqv & team show that #plasma#Ptau in combination with brief & accessible measures predicts future #AD with high accuracy.

Analyzing network effects of DBS using fNIRS has the huge advantage of no stimulation artifacts. Schumacher et al. explore this & show effects of DBS on PFC organization as a function of disease onset. Relevant for understanding cogn. decline in PD/DBS.
