Momentum behind brain-computer interfaces is growing, but experts say that design innovations are needed to help them survive decades in.

Precise electrical stimulation is essential for modern neural interfaces, but unwanted current spread often activates off-target cells and limits resolution. A new microneedle electrode design ...

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 ...

Precision Neuroscience is testing its brain-computer interface in human patients at the Mount Sinai Health System in New York City. As CNBC watched from an operating room in April, the company set a ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. After being approached by a neurosurgeon seeking a less invasive ...

(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 ...

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 ...

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.
