FOX 5 Atlanta featured the lab’s BCI work in a story on the BrainGate clinical trial at Emory and Georgia Tech: Emory and Georgia Tech trial helps paralyzed patients speak. The segment talks with Dr. Pandarinath and Dr. Nicholas Au Yong about using small intracortical sensors and AI to translate intended speech into text for people who cannot communicate verbally.
Dr. Pandarinath was elected to the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE) College of Fellows as part of the Class of 2026, recognized for “outstanding contributions to computational neural engineering through the development of gold standard methods of latent space analysis.” The formal induction ceremony was held in Arlington, VA on April 13, 2026.
