Imagine a world where the ability to speak and express thoughts and emotions is lost. How would someone navigate life in silence, cut off from the power of their own voice? This is the stark reality for individuals who suffer from near-complete paralysis, where communication becomes an overwhelming challenge.
But what if there was a way to give these individuals their voice back—not just restoring speech but recreating the unique qualities of their pre-injury voice? On this episode of the BCI Award series of Neurocareers: Doing the Impossible!, we explore this groundbreaking possibility with our guest, Kaylo Littlejohn, an EECS PhD student at UC Berkeley.
Kaylo, advised by Professor Gopala K. Anumanchipalli and Dr. Edward F. Chang, has been at the forefront of developing revolutionary AI systems that translate neural activity into spoken or written words. His research focuses on restoring lost functions to those with severe paralysis through speech and avatar neuroprostheses. Remarkably, Kaylo’s work enabled the first-ever demonstration of intelligible speech synthesis from neural activity in a person who had lost the ability to communicate.
Working alongside his team at UC Berkeley and UCSF, Kaylo has helped create a neuroprosthesis capable of not only decoding speech but also controlling a virtual avatar that mirrors the user's facial expressions and emotions. This technology has already received global recognition, having been featured in Nature, on the front cover of The New York Times, and showcased at White House Demo Day. Their innovative project earned 2nd place in the prestigious BCI Award 2023.
Join us as we dive into the story behind this life-changing technology, the challenges faced along the way, and the future of AI-driven neuroprosthetics. Kaylo Littlejohn shares his journey, the cutting-edge science behind their success, and how they are truly doing the impossible by giving people back their voices—literally.
A listener’s feedback from this interview: "I was very moved by Kaylo’s story of using his patient’s wedding video to recreate her voice. What an incredible gift to her and her husband!"

How do you accurately and objectively diagnose hearing loss, especially in children who might struggle to communicate their challenges? This problem has long puzzled clinicians and researchers alike. Traditional methods can be time-consuming and often require the patient’s active participation—something not always possible with young children.
Enter Ben Somers, PhD, MBA, and his team from KU Leuven and ExpORL. They have developed a groundbreaking brain-computer interface (BCI) that offers a real-time solution for hearing diagnostics. By measuring brain responses through EEG as the patient listens to natural speech, this innovative technology allows for precise and objective assessments, making it easier to diagnose hearing issues swiftly and accurately.
Dr. Ben Somers, who studied electrical engineering at KU Leuven, has dedicated his career to improving speech processing and hearing diagnostics. His work, alongside his team, has earned them a spot as one of the 12 finalists for the prestigious BCI Award 2023. Their child-friendly hearing and speech diagnostics project, Corgee, is set to revolutionize the field and even become a university spin-off company.
Join us in this episode of Neurocareers: Doing the Impossible! as we delve into the details of this innovative BCI technology, explore Ben’s journey from engineering to neuroscience, and uncover the incredible potential of their work to transform hearing diagnostics for children and beyond.

How can we help people with prosthetic legs walk more easily and with less effort?
In this episode of Neurocareers: Doing the Impossible!, we explore this question with Giacomo Valle, PhD, a leading researcher in the field of biomimetic brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) and bionic legs. Dr. Valle and his colleagues at ETH Zürich have developed an innovative biomimetic BCI that uses peripheral nerve stimulation to convey naturalistic touch sensations in bionic legs. This groundbreaking work has earned them a spot as one of the 12 finalists for the BCI Award 2023.
Dr. Valle's research focuses on creating artificial communication with the brain through peripheral nerve stimulation, providing a more intuitive and natural sensory experience. His team developed a biomimetic neurostimulation framework inspired by nature, capable of "writing" physiologically plausible information back into the peripheral nervous system. Using an in-silico model of mechanoreceptors, they created biomimetic stimulation policies, which were tested alongside mechanical touch and common linear neuromodulations.
In clinical trials, these techniques have shown significant improvements in mobility and reduced mental effort compared to traditional approaches. The neural responses produced by this innovative approach resemble those naturally induced, marking a significant advancement in assistive neurotechnologies.
Dr. Valle's project, "Biomimetic BCI Conveys Naturalistic Touch Sensations via Peripheral Nerve Stimulation for Bionic Legs," represents a major leap forward in neuroengineering and bionics. With an educational background that includes a B.S. in Biomedical Engineering and an M.S. in Bioengineering from the University of Genoa, and a Ph.D. in Biorobotics from the Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna, Dr. Valle has extensive experience in this field. His career journey includes research positions at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne and ETH Zurich, where he contributed to significant innovations in neuroprosthetics.
As a co-founder of the medtech startup MYNERVA and now a Tenure-track Assistant Professor in Bionics at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden, Dr. Valle's research focuses on neuroengineering and computational models aimed at restoring sensory feedback and understanding somatosensory processing and neural control of movements.
Join us as Dr. Valle shares insights into his research, discusses his career path, and offers valuable advice for a successful BCI Award submission. Whether you're interested in the latest advancements in neuroengineering or seeking inspiration for your own scientific endeavors, this episode is packed with fascinating insights and expert guidance.

Have you ever wondered if it's possible to give speech back to those who've lost it using advanced brain technology? Dear Listeners, welcome to episode #82 of our “Neurocareers: Doing the Impossible!” podcast, where we're diving deep into the world of speech neuroprostheses and exploring how brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are unlocking new ways to communicate.
Speech-decoding BCIs are gaining ground rapidly. They promise a new way to communicate for those who cannot speak by tapping directly into brain activity. The secret to making these devices work is understanding how speech is produced in the brain, from the timing to the specific brain regions involved. Interestingly, it looks like even deeper brain areas, including the insula, hippocampus, and thalamus are involved in this process.
I am your podcast host Dr. Milena Korostenskaja or simply Dr. K. and joining us today is Maxime Verwoert, a researcher with the long-term goal of developing speech neuroprostheses. After her studies in Psychology and Neuroscience at Utrecht University, Maxime is now a PhD candidate at Maastricht University in Netherlands focusing on decoding speech signals in real-time with stereo-EEG. This technology is less invasive than other methods, such as ECoG, offering hope for long-term use in BCIs.
Maxime's recent work, published in Nature's Scientific Data, involved collecting a rich dataset from participants reading aloud while their brain activity was meticulously recorded. This dataset covers a broad spectrum of brain regions and offers deep insights into how we produce speech.
In our chat, Maxime explains how this cutting-edge technology is developed, the hurdles of interpreting complex brain signals into speech, and what the future holds for people needing speech neuroprostheses. Maxime will also share her advice for those who are planning to get into the field of neurotechnologies. Whether you're a tech enthusiast, a healthcare professional, or just curious about how neuroscience changes lives, this conversation promises to bring unique knowledge and inspiration. So tune in, and get ready to be amazed by how close we are to turning thoughts into words!
