Since 2002, Lebedev is at Duke University, Durham, North Carolina. He develops invasive brain-computer interfaces and that simultaneously decode brain activity and deliver sensory information to the brain using electrical stimulation of nervous tissue. In his studies conducted in nonhuman primates, he showed that the movements of prosthetic and virtual limbs can be controlled directly by the cortical activity recorded with multichannel implants. He also showed that artificial tactile sensations can be generated using electrical microstimulations delivered through the implants placed in the somatosensory cortex. Lebedev recently worked on the development of brain-computer interfaces for whole-body navigation in a motorized wheelchair. Lebedev is an editor at several scientific journals. He won Frontiers Spotlight Award and organized the conference on the augmentation of brain function that was held in Lausanne, Switzerland. In 2017, Lebedev won a megagrant from the Government of Russian Federation, which allowed to open the Center for Bioelectrical Interfaces at the Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience of the Higher School of Economics. As the Scientific Head of the Center, he supervises the development of bidirectional brain-computer interfaces based on electrocorticographic recordings in humans. Lebedev presented numerous lectures at the scientific meetings held in Russia and around the world; he collaborates with several laboratories in Russia.
Prof. Tishin is author and co-author of 2 books, 3 book chapters, more than 200 scientific publications in refereed journals and more than 50 patents. His works gave significant impulse in the developing of magnetocaloric materials and magnetic refrigeration.
Alexander M. Tishin - Physics Fuculty of Moscow State University
Member of the YPO Association.
Managing partner in Private Equity fund.
Russian scientist and engineer working in fields of electronics, computing, and solid-state physics.
Graduated from the Department of Physical and Quantum Electronics of Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT) in 2010. He holds the position as the Head of MIPT Shared Resources Facility, which provides microfabrication capabilities for internal and external users, focusing on fields of microelectronics, integrated photonics, and quantum technologies. In 2016 he founded the Laboratory of Neurocomputing Systems, which focuses on research in the fields of specialized hardware accelerators for AI and high-performance computing, novel hardware-software co-design methodologies, and emerging computing technologies, such as in-memory processing and mixed-signal data processing. As the head of the Laboratory, he leads the development of reconfigurable AI accelerator IP blocks and created new approaches for high-level hardware synthesis approaches using declarative hardware descriptions and user and AI-driven transformations. His teams in the Laboratory successfully taped out 6 chips, including specialized computing accelerators and specialized mixed-signal integrated circuits based on RISC-V cores and high-performance accelerators.
He also works on the development of advanced memory and data storage systems, mainly based on ferroelectric and resistive storage cells. The first in the world IC incorporating transition-metal-based embedded FRAM was successfully developed and successfully taped out in 2019 under his leadership.
His interests also include neural interfaces and coherent quantum systems. His teams developed in-vitro microelectrode array systems with optogenetic capabilities and in-vivo neural interfaces based on microfabricated flexible high-io count electrodes. He also works on the development of fabrication technology for highly integrated superconducting-based quantum computing systems.
