I am extremely honored to receive the Engineering Outstanding Young Alumni Award from @RiceEngineering. The George R. Brown School of Engineering was truly a special place to "grow up" as a researcher and I owe so much to my mentors there. engineering.rice.edu/news/rice-engi…

@neuroamyo @wrfseattle Congratulations Amy!

A big thanks to the Washington Research Foundation @wrfseattle for their support! It's a huge honor to receive an award focused on things I value so much: interdisciplinary research & teaching/outreach to make science a more inclusive and equitable place. washington.edu/research/annou…

So excited to have José Millán, a pioneer in brain-machine interfaces, on the faculty here at UT Austin. Turning science fiction into reality. ⁦@UTBiomedical⁩

Eso!

So proud of the @UTBiomedical faculty, students, staff, and postdocs that were awarded seed grants from @CockrellSchool to broaden participation in engineering and leaned into DEI. #diversity #equity #inclusion

Big congrats to the Graduates for Underrepresented Minorities (and in particular their VP, my student Grace Jeanpierre), for their award for contributions to equity in engineering! This group has had a profound impact on experiences of STEM grad students.

Proud of @pesanta for his award from @CockrellSchool for his contributions to equity in engineering as a professional track faculty in @utexasece! You are an inspiration to so many!

@matthew_willsey @DellMedSchool @UTAustin @uthealthaustin @utexasece @UTBiomedical @CockrellSchool Looking forward to having you join us here in Austin!

Thrilled to announce l will be joining @DellMedSchool at @UTAustin as an assistant professor of neurosurgery.🤘 A special thanks to Dr. Nick Barbaro for this wonderful opportunity. @uthealthaustin @utexasece @UTBiomedical @CockrellSchool #BCI #DBS #neuromodulation

Can we image and decode brain activity with ultrasound noninvasively in adult humans? Yes, by installing a permanent customized acoustic window. Congrats to Claire Rabut, @SumnerLN, @WhitneySGriggs and collaborators on this advance. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

@MaryamShanechi @USCViterbi Amazon news - congratulations!

Excited to announce that I have been promoted to Full Professor @USCViterbi! 🎉 I am so grateful to all my amazing students and postdocs who made this possible. 🧠💻🔥

Congratulations to Derek Chang on successfully completely his PhD! Derek is the first student to graduate from our lab and I couldn't be more proud!

@JTRobinsonLab Congratulations and well deserved!

I’m so thankful for the many fantastic students I’ve had the privilege of working with over the last 10 yrs. Promotion is a credit to them and I’m glad that I can now write letters for them as a full prof. Following their careers is going to be a lot of fun!
