NERVES Lab

Are you …Ready for It? In this Era of neurotechnology, we wrote this TIMEly review of the technological and biological failure modes of implanted neural interfaces and how to overcome these challenges, Swiftly published in Bioelectronic Medicine. rdcu.be/eduek

Happy Holidays from the NERVES Lab!

I am really excited to share our lab's first paper, published this week! We wrote a review about the most recent advances in motor and sensory recovery using spinal cord stimulation (SCS)⚡️ This includes implanted & transcutaneous SCS #newPI #proudPI sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

@NS_Card wins “most research themed” for his NeuroPort, though Hamza dressed as @DrDavidBrandman was amazing.

Happy Halloween from the NERVES Lab!

Are you at @BMESociety? If so, check out NERVES Lab student Chimdi Ihediwa's poster Friday morning at 10AM! ✨️Image Processing of X-rays of the Lumbar Spine and Spinal Cord Stimulation Implants ✨️ Be amazed at our undergraduate student talent!🧠🦾🦿👩🏿‍💻 @BlackInNeuro

@NatureNeuro RehabWeek 2025 in Chicago! Featuring @IFESS_org @ICORR_2025 and many more!

It's time for us to start planning our 2025 conference travel! What are the can't-miss meetings we need to know about?

Spotted: NERVES Lab at @BMESociety

Last night the NERVES Lab got together for a games night! We had too much fun and forgot to take photos. We did take some of this charcuterie spread, though. Can you spot it?

Our students are so fire 🔥, they have the same shoes! Slay!

The NERVES Lab had 3 students apply for the GRFP this cycle! To say that we are exhausted would be an understatement. But we're really proud of the proposals that we submitted. Now, it's time to sleep

Labs that fire together, wire together

The NERVES Lab had a great showing at the Utah BME Conference! One of our undergraduate students, Chimdi Ihediwa, won 3rd place for her poster and 1 minute pitch! We are so proud!! 👏

Today, we got to meet the adorable Rose 🌹! She nuzzled right up to us as Mom and Research Associate Kylee read us Neural Networks for Babies #NewLabMember

Introducing our new paper, officially out in J Neural Engineering: iopscience.iop.org/article/10.108… The Phantom Menace:“A preliminary study exploring the effects of transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation on spinal excitability and phantom limb pain in people with a transtibial amputation”

NERVES Lab member Chimdi Ihediwa is presenting her work at the Undergraduate Research Symposium today! She's working to develop a method to automatically detect spinal vertebrae and SCS electrodes from fluoroscopy images 🩻 Funded by UROP @UtahBME

Check out our new paper led by @_jting! This is the outcome of her becoming interested in pain and DRG stimulation⚡️ mechanisms, and designing a study for her thesis to look at sensory fiber recruitment with DRG stim🐁

We are reppin all over the globe! Photo 📸 by Research Associate @MartaIversen!

We took an updated lab photo today!
