About
Sarah Seko is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of neuroscience and neuroengineering, whose work focuses on the dynamic interplay between neural stability and plasticity in the human brain. Her major contributions center on understanding how the nervous system balances the need for stable neural representations with the capacity for adaptive plasticity, particularly in the context of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). In her highly cited 2025 paper, "Sampling representational plasticity of simple imagined movements across days enables long-term neuroprosthetic control" (29 citations), Seko demonstrated that even well-rehearsed, simple imagined movements exhibit significant representational drift, yet this plasticity can be harnessed for stable, long-term neuroprosthetic control. Her foundational 2023 work, "Flexible regulation of representations on a drifting manifold enables long-term stable complex neuroprosthetic control" (2 citations), further revealed that the brain's ability to flexibly regulate these drifting representations is key to achieving complex, stable BCI performance over extended periods. By using electrocorticography to track neural activity across days, Seko has provided critical insights into how the brain adapts to new contexts, paving the way for more resilient and intuitive neuroprosthetic devices. Her research is shaping the future of assistive technology for individuals with motor disabilities.
