Dr. Miguel Nicolelis has been selected as the recipient of the 2017 IEEE Daniel E. Noble Award for Emerging Technologies for his “seminal contributions to brain-machine interfaces.” This prestigious award is presented annually for “outstanding contributions to emerging technologies recognized within recent years.” According to IEEE, “the award is named in honor of Dr. Daniel E. Noble, Executive Vice Chairman of the Board emeritus of Motorola. Dr. Noble is significantly known for the design and installation of the nation’s first statewide two-way radio communications system. The system was the first in the world to use FM technology.” Read more at: http:\/\/www.ieee.org\/about\/awards\/noble.html<\/a><\/p>\n

Foreign Policy Magazine named Dr. Miguel Nicolelis as a Leading Global Thinker of 2015. This year scientists made significant discoveries about the least understood part of the body: the brain. Three labs, in particular, began to unlock the organ\u2019s extraordinary potential \u2014 developments with implications for medical advancement and human behavior. At one, Duke University neuroscientist Miguel Nicolelis was able to sync the brain activity of monkeys so they could collectively accomplish tasks, such as move an avatar arm.
