Today, the #INNSightForum welcomes its second external speaker, Liina Pylkkänen (@liinapy.bsky.social)!

Join us as we explore language processing to take a glance into the brain’s temporal dynamics at 11:15 a.m. in the Suddath Seminar Room (IBB 1128) or online | 🗓️ neuro.gatech.edu/innsight-for...

From wearable robotics to deep brain stimulation, our researchers are tackling stroke recovery, limb loss, aging, depression, and more.

This is the neuroscience that moves us — literally and figuratively.

NeuroArts - The Woodruff Arts Center Explore opportunities in higher education, mentorship, networking, and career paths—all while experiencing world-renowned theatre, music, and visual art at no cost—at our third annual HBCU AccessFest.

INNS Executive Director @crozell.bsky.social joined artists, researchers, and educators at The Woodruff Arts Center to explore how the arts support human flourishing through neuroscience, launching Georgia’s NeuroArts Coalition powered by @neuroartsblueprint.bsky.social woodruffcenter.org/neuroarts/

“Applied Design Methods for Community Well-Being” is a new course in partnership with A.G. Rhodes, where students use design to foster human connection and engage with adults experiencing cognitive decline.

Please share widely! If you work in any area related to the brain and policy, please consider applying to be our colleague here at Georgia Tech. This could include (but is not limited to) neuroethics or brain/mental health policy.

After nearly 10 years of weekly seminars, we’re reimagining the conversation.

Today, Tim Cope helped launch the INNSight Forum — a new weekly event exploring neuroscience, neurotech, and society through research, professional development, and community.

Update from Georgia Tech President Ángel Cabrera

Breakthroughs happen at the intersection of disciplines, and INNS is proud to be part of @gtresearchnews.bsky.social’s culture of collaboration.

President @cabreraangel.bsky.social's latest newsletter highlights how INNS is advancing research with real-world impact.

Please repost! We're hiring a postdoc to work with me and
@salagapan.bsky.social on an exciting interdisciplinary project in human neuroscience and brain-body interactions underlying effortful behavior in health and mood disorders.

Meet the leaders of our newest IRIs:

-GTRI's Jud Ready for The Space Research Institute b.gatech.edu/40lEsD0
-@gatechengineers.bsky.social's @crozell.bsky.social for @gt-neuro.bsky.social b.gatech.edu/4kG2dgc

The brain remains one of science’s most complex frontiers. Georgia Tech is taking on that challenge with INNS — and Christopher Rozell will lead as its inaugural executive director.

Georgia Tech researchers discover key neuron behavior with potential to restore memory in Alzheimer's patients Researchers at Georgia Tech have uncovered findings with implications for understanding memory and learning, which could lead to restoring memory in Alzheimer's patients.

Our research, funded by the NIH, was just featured on FOX 5! Thanks to interviewer Kevyn Stewart for sharing how Nuri Jeong's grandmother inspired her research, recently published in @nature.com. Get a glimpse into the lab here: www.fox5atlanta.com/news/georgia...

Had a wonderful time this week at #InterfaceNeuro in Atlanta as did our many students who presented posters! Congratulations @gt-neuro.bsky.social and everyone who helped to make this event a success!

InterfaceNeuro was a great meeting! There is such an impressive range of technologies being developed for neuromodulation and brain-computer interfaces. It was nice to see this work presented alongside more basic science efforts to figure out exactly what/where we should be modulating.

And that's a wrap on #InterfaceNeuroGT!

Thank you to the organizers and attendees for a great meeting. See you next year at @riceneuro.bsky.social!

The final #InterfaceNeuroGT session covered joint modeling of brain and behavior. Speakers highlighted how they're using innovative computational and experimental approaches to understand how neural activity influences behavior and intention.

Our next #InterfaceNeuroGT session highlighted cutting-edge techniques for measuring and manipulating sensorimotor and cognitive behavior — across species and across scales.

Thank you to @ufhealthcancer.bsky.social and @parkinsondotorg.bsky.social's @michaelokun.bsky.social for a wonderful keynote! #InterfaceNeuroGT

🤝 Neuromodulation is a team sport — it’s crucial to bring scientists, engineers, and a multidisciplinary care team into the fold.

💛 Always pick the patient over the treatment — these treatments are to help make patients’ lives better. Keep your “why” close.

#InterfaceNeuroGT

🧐 Some of these advances in this field should make you uncomfortable as researchers — ethics are foundational.

🩺 Treatment doesn’t end at the end of the operation — it’s an iterative process.

🗣️ Your words matter to these patients — be precise.

#InterfaceNeuroGT

📋 Have a plan.

🧠 The nervous system is only 10-20% neurons — remember that when you are designing new devices.

🔬Just because these treatments work doesn’t mean we fully understand the mechanisms — there is more work to be done.

#InterfaceNeuroGT

We were thrilled to hear #InterfaceNeuroGT's keynote talk from @michaelokun.bsky.social, who shared lessons learned from decades of experience working with patients receiving neuromodulation therapies.

A few key takeaways 🧵⬇️

Day 2 of #InterfaceNeuro is off! We began today by redefining brain-machine interfaces — from real-time adaptation and closed-loop control of devices to incorporating the peripheral nervous system .
