This year, I spent March–June at the University of Oregon, working with @mmarneweck.bsky.social on an fMRI analysis of the representational pattern similarity of lip and hand movements after upper-limb amputation.
Excited to share this at #BACN25 ✨ Find me at the datablitz/poster sessions on Friday!
