Members of the Grill Lab presented 11 different posters at the 45th Annual Meeting of the Society for Neuroscience in Chicago. Topics spanned from spinal cord stimulation for pain to peripheral nerve stimulation for treatment of incontinence to de*p brain stimulation, with approaches spanning computational modeling through human studies. From left to right: Tianhe Cheng Zhang, Meredith McGee, David Brocker, and Bryan Howell We use engineering approaches to understand and control neural function. Our research and development efforts are focused on devices that use electrical activation of the nervous system to restore function to individuals with neurological impairment. As if a Nobel Prize weren’t enough, another Duke scientist recently earned a prestigious award for groundbreaking research. Warren Grill was recognized Nov. 2 at the MDB Trent Semans Center for his research and development of de*p brain stimulation (DBS) treatments for With support from the Duke CTSA through the Duke Translational Research Institute (DTRI) Collaborative Pilot Award, Warren Grill, a professor of Biomedical Engineering and Neurobiology, and Nandan Lad, a neurosurgeon, think they improve treatment of chronic pain. The Office of the Provost cordially invites you to a special event honoring Duke’s own Dr. Warren Grill, recipient of the 2015 Ja*its Neuroscience Investigator Award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and St*oke.
