Leigh Hochberg is the L. Herbert Ballou University Professor of Engineering and Professor of Brain Science at Brown University. He co-directs the Carney Institute for Brain Science and leads the BrainGate clinical trial, focusing on restoring communication and mobility for individuals with paralysis through brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) and neurotechnology research. PhD and MD from Emory University (1999) BS in Engineering from Brown University (1990) Research Interests span ALS , paralysis , spinal cord injury , and stroke , with a translational focus on BCI-enabled communication and neuroprosthetic limb control . His work bridges human intracortical neurophysiology and clinical neurorehabilitation . Publication Trends (15 most recent) highlight advancements in invasive BCI systems , neural decoding , and neuroprosthetic control (2015-2022). Key subfields include motor cortex dynamics , seizure prediction , speech decoding , and real-time neural signal processing . Scientific Awards: Israel Brain Technologies International B.R.A.I.N. Prize (2013) CERF Prize in Medical Engineering (2022) Paul B. Magnuson Award (2022) Grants include funding from the NIH BRAIN Initiative, Department of Veterans Affairs, and National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders. He collaborates extensively with John Donoghue , John Simeral , and David Borton in neurotechnology development. Labs & Teams include the BrainGate consortium and the Warren Alpert Medical School Faculty , integrating engineering , neuroscience , and clinical neurology disciplines.
