Find out more about what we do here in the Precision Neuroscience & Neuromodulation Lab in the latest publication from Massachusetts General Hospital's Advances in Motion - with quotes from our very own Emiliano Santarnecchi! "Leveraging both neurophysiology and electrophysiology has opened doors allowing us to define not only brain architecture but also the network-level changes that occur with age or in the presence of neurological dysfunction," says Emiliano Santarnecchi, PhD, PsyD. "These methods offer an opportunity to effectively address conditions for which no effective treatments currently exist." #innovation #neuroscience #precisionmedicine ➡ https://lnkd.in/ekw_kfYB

Our paper exploring the feasibility of testing patients with Medtronic Percept PC telemetric stimulator in a MEG scanner has come out in "Imaging Neuroscience". We show that combining telemetric streaming with MEG is possible when using the new SenSight leads. We also tested Percept PC with the cutting edge Optically Pumpled Magnetometers (OPMs) and showed that there is potential in combining OPM recordings with monopolar Deep Brain Stimulation (something that is rather tricky in cryogenic MEG). https://lnkd.in/eJixaZqc

Microglia Are Key Players in Awakening the Brain Post-Anesthesia Researchers uncover microglia's pivotal role in brain recovery post-anesthesia, offering a potential breakthrough in tackling post-anesthesia complications. This discovery opens doors to new treatments for delirium and hyperactivity. https://lnkd.in/gmfrMMX2

Researchers made a pioneering advancement in neuroscience by creating the first-ever 3D-printed brain tissue that exhibits growth and functional capabilities akin to actual human brain tissue. This breakthrough holds immense promise for enhancing our understanding of brain function and the mechanisms underlying neurological and neurodevelopmental disorders, & opens up new possibilities for research into disease pathogenesis, drug discovery, and the exploration of brain development and disorders in a controlled, laboratory setting.

We have realized much progress within the #neuroscience drug development space. One of the most significant drivers of this progress is the global collaboration among researchers, scientists, and healthcare professionals and their collaborative efforts to accelerate brain disease research and treatment.   Global collaboration is a catalyst for progress and can lead to innovations that bring us closer to a world where neurological conditions are better understood and more effectively treated. However, as we acknowledge how far we’ve come, it is importance to recognize that we still have a long way to go. In this peer-reviewed article, Liping Liu and colleagues discuss the opportunities for collaboration to improve #brainhealth worldwide: https://lnkd.in/dFrSmhG
