CBI team at Skolkovo Robotics 2019
On April 16, 2019, Alex Ossadtchi and Mikhail Lebedev have made a keynote speech at the Skolkovo Robotics 2019 event. Nickolay Smetanin has also demoed a neurointerface designed at the CBI to control an exoskeleton (made by the Russian company ExoAtlet).

MEG UK 2019 Conference
CBI researchers Alexandra Kuznetsova and Yulia Nurislamova made oral presentations athe MEG UK 2019 conference to have taken place April 15-17 in Cardiff, UK.
CBI is featured on Russia-24 channel
Russia-24 aired a story in which Alex Ossadtchi, Ksenia Volkova, Nickolay Smetanin, Alexander Belyayev and Alexandra Kuznetsova talk about the CBI and its research: an exoskeleton-controlling neurointerface, myographic interface to control a hand avatar and the main project to develop an invasive neurointerface to be used in clinical settings.
How does the brain behave during simultaneous interpreting?
A recent edition of Popular Mechanics has featured an article about the study "Testing the efforts model of simultaneous interpreting: An ERP study" by Roman Koshkin, Yury Shtyrov, Andriy Myachykov and Alex Ossadtchi originally published in PLoS ONE in 2008.

ExoRehab Spotlights 2018 Symposium
Photo report from the international symposium ExoRehab Spotlights 2018 that took place on December 5 in Moscow.
Researchers of the Center for Bioelectric Interfaces Nikolai Smetanin, Aleksandra Kuznetsova and Alexei Ossadtchi presented Russia's first EEG-based neural interface that uses lower limb motor imagery for exoskeleton control. Alexei Ossadtchi also made a presentation "BCI for walk decoding".
This work has been done in collaboration with the Russian company ExoAtlet and Denis Lyovin who had volunteered to pilot the exoskeleton.

Congrats to Anastasiya Belinskaya on winning a studentship from the Oxford Russia Fund!
We congratulate our colleague Anastasiya Belinskaya on winning a studentship from the Oxford Russia Fund! The studentship is awarded to graduate students for 2018 and 2019 based on academic merit and research performance. Anastasiya's master thesis project is titled "The effect of feedback signal presentation latency on the effectiveness of training in neurofeedback paradigm" and is supervised by Prof. Alex Ossadtchi.
