A busy week at the 11th BCI meeting for the NERV lab!

What a week for the NERV Lab at the BCI Meeting 2025 in the wonderful Banff, Canada! First, two of our rising stars, whom I have the pleasure to co-supervise, presented their studies during a poster session and a masterclass session: Cassandra Dumas presented her work on the [challenges in Common Spatial Pattern reliability for Neurofeedback](https://lnkd.in/duUCrAd7) and Camilla Mannino presented her latest work on the [use of neuronal avalanches as a predictive biomarker of BCI performance](https://lnkd.in/dTFGcA28). Then, I had the pleasure of participating in the workshop on AI+Data chaired by Eli Kinney-Lang, where I presented [MOABB](https://lnkd.in/dWGhE_nA) (also known as 'Mother of All BCI Benchmarks') to benchmark classification pipelines in BCI On the last day of the conference, together with Tristan Venot and Serafeim Perdikis, we organized a workshop dedicated to the exploration of features to improve BCI. It was a fruitful session with a lot of discussions with the audience. A huge thank you to the speakers: Maryam Alimardani, Pierpaolo Sorrentino, Fabrizio, De Vico Fallani, Arthur Desbois, Sonja Kleih-Dahms, Tomko Settgast, Reinhold Scherer & Jose del R. Millan.

I am deeply grateful to the award committee of the BCI Society for this recognition! A huge thank you to the organizers, in particular to the conference chairs Mariska van Steensel & Marc Slutzky, and the scientific program committee chairs Reinhold Scherer and Eli Kinney-Lang for putting together such a great event! We go back to Paris with so many new ideas!
