Out on Progress in Neurobiology: We tested a bi-cortical neuroprosthesis on locomotor control after incomplete paraplegia. Thanks to Maude Duguay, @MarcoBonizzato , Hugo Delivet-Mongrain and Nicolas Fortier Lebel for their huge work at @med_umontreal sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

.@MarcoBonizzato discusses using neuromodulation of the motor cortex to improve locomotor function after spinal cord injury. @ScienceTM @_MartinezLab @UMontreal #JRNLclub jrnlclub.org/research-films…

Neural prostheses, implanted BCI and AI in precision medicine 1) work at the discovery phase of new interventions in vivo and 2) collaborate with incredible neurosurgeons. A great potential track for those of you who are considering entrepreneurship and in Neuro-AI / Medtech

Félicitation à notre première étoile #effervescencemtl, Marina Martinez -@_MartinezLab, professeure au département des neurosciences de @med_umontreal. Le Concours Étoiles EFFERVESCENCE 2022 est fièrement présenté par @GileadSciences.

Marina Martinez, professeure de #neurosciences à l’@UMontreal et le postdoctorant Marco Bonizzato ont conçu une approche prometteuse pour aider les personnes paralysées à marcher de nouveau en envoyant des impulsions électriques dans leur cerveau. bit.ly/3BmBAGN

Hey All, Just a reminder that we're launching our collaboration with @SpinalResearch tomorrow with a great presentation by @KarimFoFFF. Everyone is welcome - including: those living with SCI, researchers, and folks who want to learn. Please join us.

Happy to share a new pre-print! We studied ipsilateral 👈👈 cortical control of leg movement using an intracortical neuroprosthesis. A beautiful effort from co-first author Elena Massai, at @_MartinezLab, @UMontreal biorxiv.org/content/10.110… A quick summary for you :

Scientists at @GRSNC1 have created a #neuroprosthetic device that can directly target motor circuits in the cortex, allowing it to rapidly restore movement and improve walking in rats after incomplete injuries to the spinal cord. @UMontreal @MarcoBonizzato fcld.ly/ol9xyt3

My first story at @DDNewsOnline just went live! Read about how @MarcoBonizzato developed a new prosthetic that helped spine injured rats walk. One day, it may help humans too! drugdiscoverynews.com/a-new-neuropro…
