Miguel Nicolelis is Brazilian!! They don't mention this in the story, of course. He did all his studies in Brazil and joined Duke in 2001 as a professor. Just thought you guys should know this. Just another example of a brilliant mind going where the money is to get the most out of his exceptional talent.
