How researchers see this paper

The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Single-Neuron Recordings Research in Children: Ethical Considerations, Feasibility, Technical Aspects, and Scientific Opportunities (2025, unknown): “The corresponding increase in neurosurgical patient involvement has also fostered the development of bioethical initiatives ensuring the maintenance of integrity of clinical care and the voluntary aspect of research participation [19–23].”
The BRAIN Initiative data-sharing ecosystem: Characteristics, challenges, benefits, and opportunities (2024, unknown): “The great expense of collecting NEM data strengthens the argument for maximizing access to it ( Feinsinger et al., 2022 ; Mercier et al., 2022 ).”
Macroscale traveling waves evoked by single-pulse stimulation of the human brain (2023, unknown): “All patients provided informed consent prior to participation, and our team took care to implement the recommended principles and practices for ethical intracranial neuroscientific research (Feinsinger et al., 2022).”
T-Rex: sTandalone Recorder of EXperiments; An easy and versatile neural recording platform (2022, background): “However, since implanting humans solely for neuroscientific research is ethically debatable, researchers often ’piggy-back’ on clinical treatments of patients that receive electrode implants ([3], [4]).”
