Frank Willett is co-director of the Neural Prosthetics Translational Laboratory. His group develops brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) to restore movement and communication to people with neurological disorders. Recent contributions include handwriting and speech-based BCIs that set new records for communication speed and accuracy in people with paralysis. More broadly, he is interested in computational approaches to understanding brain function and recordings, with a focus on how the human brain represents movement and language.
