BackgroundAlzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disorder, characterized by progressive cognitive decline and memory impairment ...

At the boundaries of systems neuroscience and engineering sits neuroengineering. A field that has brought advances in neurotechnology with life-changing implications for patients affected by nervous ...

Brain-computer interfaces are a groundbreaking technology that can help paralyzed people regain functions they’ve lost, like moving a hand. These devices record signals from the brain and decipher the ...

What are brain-computer interfaces? Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are devices that allow for the action or control of an external device from brain signals. These technologies have a broad range of ...

Elon Musk co-founded Neuralink in 2016 to develop brain-machine interfaces. The first product — the N1 implant — focuses on allowing patients with paralysis to control computer cursors with their mind ...

People who have lost the ability to move or speak may soon have a new option: surgically implanted devices that link the brain to a computer. More than two decades after researchers first demonstrated ...

Last summer, a team of researchers reported using a brain-computer interface to detect words people with paralysis imagined saying, even without them physically attempting to speak. They also found ...

A man who hasn’t been able to move or speak for years imagines picking up a cup and filling it with water. In response to the man’s thoughts, a robotic arm mounted on his wheelchair glides forward, ...

For years my counseling goal has been to assist clients in the reduction of problematic symptoms. However after learning about neurotherapy and neurocounseling and becoming board certified in ...

Every four years at the Cybathlon, teams of researchers and technology “pilots” compete to see whose brain-computer interface holds the most promise. Owen Collumb, a Cybathlon race pilot who has been ...
