Developing next gen neuromodulation technology as the PI of the Bioelectronics Laboratory at the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research. Opinions are my own.

A terrific talk from Kevin Tracey about his amazing discovery of the antiinflammatory reflex by stimulating the vagus nerve. Thank you Kevin for your great talk ! #OARSI2023
Looking forward to speaking tomorrow at #OARSI2023 in Denver. Great science and opportunities to collaborate on #vagus nerve stimulation and osteoarthritis! https://t.co/KsLap9a73g

Fascinating new study from @changsbrain lab that #vagus neurons process and organize information from the immune system BEFORE forwarding it to the brain....this will get you thinking about how and why you react to #inflammation. https://t.co/2li1GeLoj3 via @ioppbio

Thrilled to share new work showing that peripheral neuron activity can be used to classify different chemical stimuli applied to the vagus nerve! Using @MiniscopeTeam imaging, we show that visceral sensory signals are encoded in the periphery. https://t.co/ugwqbODdk0

Thanks for including me in this piece, happy to be able to share my thoughts.
Scientists find a way to use the body's own chemistry to build electrodes inside living tissue. This discovery could help improve implantable electronics used for research, desease diagnosis and treatment. Here's my newest story for @Nature

Think of the positive here, it is another way to stimulate the #vagus and suppress #inflammation!

Our clinical trial using vagus nerve stimulation for nephrotic syndrome (FRNS/SRNS) in children is now enrolling at Cohen’s and CHOP. Able to support travel. Only 2 in-person visits. Please send pts our way! Csethna@northwell.edu

This is a very big deal.
On December 5, a team at LLNL’s National Ignition Facility (NIF) conducted the first controlled fusion experiment in history to reach this milestone, also known as scientific #energy breakeven, meaning it produced more energy from #fusion than the laser energy used to drive it.

Recent paper from Feinstein reveals 2 new insights: 1) injured sciatic neurons release HMGB1 to mediate inflammation and 2) high frequency stimulation inhibits HMGB1 release, attenuates #inflammation and prevents #pain.
