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.

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.

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.

🤝 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.

🧐 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.

📋 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.
