Dear Colleagues,
Welcome to the June 2021 edition of Research Notables. Thank you to everyone who helped us celebrate VA research day with the theme "One Team, One Mission." Our keynote event featured Dr. W. Curt LaFrance who spoke about seizures in Veterans and the multi-disciplinary Providence VA team taking care of them. We also highlighted some of our junior-investigators and their contributions to research at the Providence VA: Sebhat Erqou, MD, cardiologist and junior investigator under the LTSS-COIN; Melanie Bozzay, PhD, postdoctoral fellow and member of the Suicide Prevention Research and Innovation Group (SPRING) at the Providence VA; Emine Yalcin, PhD, Research Biologist at the Providence VA; and Portia Cornell, PhD, a research specialist with the LTSS-COIN.
 Please take a moment to join me in congratulating our colleagues recognized in this issue of Research Notables.
Sincerely,
Gaurav Choudhary, MD
Associate Chief of Staff (Research)

VA Research in the News
James Rudolph, MD, was featured on WJAR (NBC-10) on May 13th. He spoke on how VA studies show how effective COVID-19 vaccines are in preventing infection. Click on the link to watch: https://turnto10.com/features
BrainGate researchers, Leigh Hochberg, MD, Ph.D. and John Simeral, Ph.D., have recently made a major breakthrough in the area of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) after clinical trial participants with tetraplegia demonstrated use of an intracortical wireless BCI with an external wireless transmitter. It was the first time such a system was used, and it is capable of transmitting brain signals at single-neuron resolution. Read the full article here: https://www.unite.ai/researchers
