About the podcast guest:

As an Assistant Professor at Florida Atlantic University and head of the Telkes Lab, Dr. Telkes is a trailblazer in using electrophysiological signal recordings and analysis to improve patient outcomes. Her groundbreaking work in deep brain stimulation, spinal cord stimulation, and biomarker discovery has earned her numerous accolades, including the prestigious Kumar Award at NANS.

Here is some information Dr. Telkes recommends for you:

Educational Programs and Societies:

· I highly recommend The North American Neuromodulation Society (NANS)'s and the International Neuromodulation Society (INS)'s journal club series. These are free webinars, and you can get the chance to interact with the world's leading scientists.

https://www.neuromodulation.com/virtual-journal-club

· Another platform I highly recommend is https://neuromodec.org/ , a free platform where you can access neuromodulation events, recent updates and news in the field, find relevant information about different interventions, etc.

· The North American Neuromodulation Society (NANS)

· Congress of Neurological Surgeons (CNS) – and its sections

· International IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBS)

· American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS)

· International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP)

My lab is looking for talented scientists at the master's, doctoral, and post-doctoral levels with research interests in neuromodulation, electrophysiological biomarkers in humans, and neurotechnology.
