This paper introduces SONIC, a benchmarking paradigm for BCIs, demonstrating an ITR of over 200 bps using an ovine model and the Connexus BCI.

This study shows that motor units are flexibly controlled by the cortex, challenging the traditional view of common drive and rigid recruitment.

This study develops a brain-machine interface for virtual self-motion by decoding neural activity from monkeys performing non-reaching arm movements, showing that different movement classes require distinct decoding strategies.

The paper compares trajectory geometries in the supplementary motor area (SMA) and primary motor cortex (M1) to infer different computational roles, finding SMA trajectories are helical and M1 are elliptical.
