    Jackson Powell

    MD Student, expected graduation Spring 2029
    MSTP Student

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am broadly interested in brain-computer interfaces. This includes reading neural activity through clinical means like intracranial EEG, or lab methods like Neuropixels. Similarly, I am interested in neuromodulation, such as deep brain stimulation for neurosurgical patients, or optogenetics for discovery.
