Jamie Brannigan

Bio: Jamie is an academic foundation doctor, training at Oxford University Hospitals. He undertakes neurotechnology research at the University of Oxford, and at University College London as an honorary research fellow. Prior to his work in Oxford, Jamie completed an undergraduate degree in neuroscience at the University of Cambridge, alongside his clinical medical training.

 

His work focuses on implantable brain-computer interfaces to restore function in motor impairment. Specifically, he works to decode motor intentions from brain data, whilst also working to understand brain-computer interface patient preferences, developing novel outcome metrics, and performing neuroimaging studies to aid device implantation. Jamie also has experience in industry, primarily through an ongoing collaboration with Synchron (New York). Through this work, he has first-hand understanding of the pressing challenges faced in the regulation of implantable brain-computer interfaces.
