The era of brain interfacing has arrived, whether one agrees or not, according to Philip Kennedy, CEO and Chief Scientist at ...

(A) Approximate brain size of human and macaque, which is a widely used experimental nonhuman primate. (B) Imaging methods for the detections of brain structure and function. (C) Different types of ...

In the treatment of epilepsy and other neurological disorders, doctors will sometimes implant arrays of stimulating electrodes on the surface of a patient's brain. A new soft robotic system allows ...

A team led by Northwestern University and Shirley Ryan AbilityLab scientists have developed a new technology that can eavesdrop on the hidden electrical dialogues unfolding inside miniature, lab-grown ...

video: EPFL scientists have developed electrode arrays that can be funneled through a small hole in the skull and deployed over a relatively large surface over the brain’s cortex. The technology may ...

Researchers have demonstrated that human brain cells can play DOOM, showcasing a major breakthrough in the advancements of wetware technology.

Scientists have made great strides in developing soft “biocompatible” electrodes. But comparatively less attention has gone toward how to actually get these devices—which have wide applications in ...

Technological advances have led to an array of medical monitoring tools that people can use without the aid of medical professionals, like smartwatches, glucose monitors, and health tracking apps.

External devices that can stimulate and record from the cells of the nervous system date back to Galvani's experiments on the animation of frog muscle. These early neural interfaces—like some still in ...
