Cynthia’s research focuses on brain-machine interface (BMI) systems using 100-channel arrays implanted in motor and premotor cortex. The goal is to develop clinically viable systems to enable paralyzed individuals to control prosthetic limbs, as well as their own limbs using functional electrical stimulation and assistive exoskeletons.
