New paper out today in @NatMachIntell, where we show robust neural to speech decoding across 48 patients. nature.com/articles/s4225…

Check out our visualization toolbox for iEEG activity.

📊 New Preprint! A Scalable Pipeline for Estimating Verb Frame Frequencies Using Large Language Models. We introduce another unexpected use for LLMs: custom treebanks via automated corpus annotation 🧵1/8 doi.org/10.48550/arXiv…

🧠🗞️🗣️Finally out! Paper with a way-too-long name for social media. How does the brain turn words into sentences? We tracked words in participants' brains while they produced sentences, and found some unexpectedly neat patterns. 🧵1/9 rdcu.be/epA1J in @CommsPsychol

Using electrical recordings taken from the surface of the brain, researchers decode what words neurosurgical patients are saying and show that the brain plans words in a different order than they are ultimately spoken. @adumbmoron @adeenflinker nature.com/articles/s4427…

“A left-lateralized dorsolateral prefrontal network for naming” by Leyao Yu et al. Cell Reports dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.celr…

Work was led by the amazing @yllyyao905 a PhD student at @nyutandon with the associated press release here engineering.nyu.edu/news/mapping-n….

The cortical representations and statistical analysis across clusters supports a semantic processing role for the naming-specific cluster.

Very happy our new paper led by @yllyyao905 is now out in @CellReports "A left-lateralized dorsolateral prefrontal network for naming" doi.org/10.1016/j.celr…

From his family:”He thought that he lived a good life overall and was at peace. There is not going to be a memorial, but the way to honor Ryan's life is to fight for research and university independence in these difficult times for academia and civil liberties in the US.”

@RyanCanolty has passed away, may his memory be a blessing. He wrote this seminal paper science.org/doi/abs/10.112… among others.

Just presented our work using #ECoG to decode words during sentence production at #HSP2025. Really grateful for all the great feedback. I got more clever ideas for future directions than I can possibly follow up on. Love this conference! doi.org/10.1101/2024.1…

Excited to kick off 2025 with new research in #MachineLearning, #Decoding & #MusicNeuroscience! Our paper, “Temporally Dissociable Neural Representations of Pitch Height and Chroma”, now in @SfNJournals. 🎉 doi.org/10.1523/JNEURO… @DavidPoeppel & @TengXB! 🧠🎵 1/n
