1/4 Today we introduce the first upper limb prosthesis for the mouse model, controlled by a brain-machine interface! We show that mice can control this prosthesis via a brain-machine interface to solve a rewarded task.

Excited to share our new paper in @cp-cellreports.bsky.social , led by grad student @rohitrangwani.bsky.social ! 🧠🤖
We show that robust #BrainMachineInterface (#BMI) control is possible using #cerebellar activity- even in a #stroke-affected brain.

BOOM! I think this paper fills a big gap in understanding how motor cortex stim works for pain... like so many things, it all seems to boil down to the ventral-lateral periaqueductal grey (vlPAG) www.cell.com/neuron/fullt...
A sensory-motor-sensory circuit underlies antinociception ignited by primary motor cortex in mice
Wang et al. unravel the fundamental reason why activation of the primary motor cortex
produces analgesia in mice from the angle of sensory-motor interaction and elucidate
it from a descending M1-LH in...

Our work on rubber hand embodiment in mice is out @plosbiology.org! We show that just like in humans, visuo-tactile pairing can lead mice to an embodiment-like behavior with respect to an artificial limb.
Embodiment of an artificial limb in mice
Body ownership disorders can be triggered by disease or body damage in humans. This study shows, using an automated, videography-based procedure, that mice also display quantifiable behavioral markers...
