A note of remembrance for Krishna Shenoy, one of the great neuroscientists of our time.

It’s remarkable that despite being at the top of his field and last author on so many seminal brain-machine interface papers over the decades, all you’ll hear today are stories of his kindness, generosity, genuine excitement, and unfailing encouragement in times of trouble.

Krishna, one of the best parts of NLK was getting to show you the stuff we got working. We will miss you so much ❤️

Happy to share my last piece of 2022. I spoke with Max Hodak about his BCI venture which aims to develop a treatment for blindness.

Hodak, a cofounder of Neuralink, left the company last year to start Science Corp.
