Alexandre Barachant, Ph.D. (aka Cat), a postdoctoral fellow at Burke Medical Research Institute, and teammate Rafal Cycon (aka Dog), recently placed first in a non-invasive brain-computer interface (BCI) challenge, Grasp-and-Lift EEG Detection, sponsored by WAY Consortium.
Each summer from June to August, Burke Medical Research Institute mentors the next generation of research scientists through the Summer Student Research Program.
