Guest Speakers:

Prof. Stanisa Raspopovic: We are honored to host Prof. Stanisa Raspopovic from ETH Zurich, whose groundbreaking work has merged neuroprosthetics and artificial intelligence. His talk, "Combining neuroprosthetics and artificial intelligence for neurorehabilitation," explores the potential of human-machine interfacing, particularly in the peripheral nervous system, for the rehabilitation of individuals with neurological disabilities. Prof. Raspopovic has led pioneering efforts to translate prosthetic sensors' data into a language that the nervous system can understand, with remarkable benefits for subjects with diabetes and lower-limb amputation.

Prof. Christian Cipriani: Prof. Christian Cipriani, a distinguished figure from the Sant'Anna School of Advanced Studies in Pisa, Italy, will present on "The Myokinetic Control Interface: Tracking Implanted Magnets as A Means for Prosthetic Control." His innovative work harnesses magnetic field principles to achieve natural control and sensory feedback of artificial limbs. By implanting magnets in independent muscles, this technology offers precise and biomimetic control of prosthetic movements. Prof. Cipriani's lecture will also touch on the exciting possibilities of studying kinesthetic percepts in humans through selectively vibrating these magnets.
