Congratulations to Angelique Paulk, Ph.D., the Center for Neurotechnology and NeuroRecovery (CNTR), and team on an awarded NIH R01 grant!!! The grant will be on ‘Neural activity signatures of tumor infiltration in the human brain’ under the Research Opportunities for New and “At-Risk” Investigators to Promote Workforce Diversity RFA (PAR-22-181). The proposed work is in collaboration with Shadi Dayeh and the IEBL lab (https://iebl.ucsd.edu/) at University of California San Diego, Drs. Gavin Dunn, Daniel Cahill, and Ziv Williams in the Department of Neurosurgery, MGH, and Drs. Isabel Arrillaga-Romany and Sydney Cash in the Department of Neurology, MGH. The work will involve using cutting edge neurotechnologies such as Neuropixels and thin film electrodes to record the electrical activity of cells in, around, and far from tumor in vivo in the human brain to supplement diagnostic imaging tools to provide a high-resolution dynamic physiological map tumor infiltration in the intact brain.
