Dr. Iahn Cajigas is a researcher at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, leading the Cajigas Lab, which specializes in translational neurosurgery. The lab is focused on addressing clinical knowledge treatment gaps in the fields of movement disorders, epilepsy, and pain. Utilizing computational and engineering methods, as well as statistical approaches, Dr. Cajigas and his team analyze electrophysiological data to assist in surgical planning, aiming to develop novel neurological targets for neuromodulation and understand neural control mechanisms for restoring function following neurological injuries. The lab's innovative work includes projects such as enabling patients to control racecars using their thoughts, which demonstrates the potential applications of their research in real-world scenarios.
