    Electric Feel! with Dr. Bolu Ajiboye

    In this episode, we sat down with Dr. Bolu Ajiboye to chat about his work in brain computer interfaces, where human brains and technology communicate with each other directly using electrical impulses.     Dr. Ajiboye is working to help restore sense and mobility to people suffering from spinal cord injuries, strokes, and debilitating injuries to the nervous system. His research has even won awards for helping veterans who suffer from nervous system diseases, so the decision to invite him to the podcast was really a no-brainer!
