Research and Development
Our team of clinicians, scientists and engineers works collaboratively to design new clinical neurotechnologies and perform high resolution neurophysiology research. We provide scientific expertise in the analysis and integration of complex neurophysiologic and neuroimaging data, and lead the field in research into neurologic devices, neuroprosthetics, seizure detection and prediction, disorders of consciousness, and neurorecovery.
Clinical Consultation
The CNTR also provides inpatient neurologic consultation for patients with severe disorders of consciousness or locked-in syndrome.
Education
The CNTR provides predoctoral and postdoctoral training in neurotechnology and neurorecovery.
Neurologic Device Clinical Trials
Complementing our scientific capabilities are strengths in the coordination of multi-site neurologic device clinical trials, execution of investigator-initiated and industry-sponsored clinical trials in neurologic devices, and interactions with clinical and research regulatory bodies.

Our Latest Updates
Congratulations to Julie A. DiCarlo, MS for earning the Stroke Rehabilitation Award at the 2022 International Stroke Conference!
The Stroke Rehabilitation Award encourages investigators to undertake or continue research and/or clinical work in the field of stroke rehabilitation. Julie’s award-winning project, entitled “Patient-reported And Performance-based Outcomes Separate Independently and Are Associated with Distinct Patterns of Neuroanatomical Injury After Stroke,” will be presented on February 9 at the International Stroke Conference.

CNTR’s research nurse Rose Marujo is hard at work on the COVID-19 front lines!
“With the support of the entire CNTR team, I have been able to step in at a time of need and become part of the COVID clinical response team. I have been providing care for people who have needed a place to self-isolate safely, at the Quality Inn in Revere. It’s been nerve-wracking, not knowing what to expect, and working my first night shifts in 20 years was challenging! I am proud to be part of an amazing team, as we have come together to support each other and to care for the men, women and children from Chelsea, Revere, Lynn and Somerville. It has been and continues to be an eye opening and emotional experience. One that I will never forget.” – Rose Marujo, RN
