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) 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 ...
The researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences said the design of the neuronal activity recorders was inspired by the Japanese art of kirigami, with its intricate 3D designs achieved by cutting ...
Whether subconscious breathing or intentional operations like walking, reaching and grabbing, every action of the human body comes from a signal transmitted through the nervous system of a powerful ...

China’s ‘floating’ 3D origami brain implant could prevent thread retraction seen in Neuralink
Chinese researchers have developed a new soft and stretchable origami-inspired brain implant. Designed to ...
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 ...
Monitoring the brain get downright medieval. In the most invasive type of procedure, surgeons saw into the skull, remove a sizeable chunk of bone, and place a grid of electrodes directly on the brain, ...

China claims first successful test of wireless brain-computer interface in space
A China-based team of researchers has reportedly completed the “world’s first in-orbit verification” of ...
Noland Arbaugh has a computer chip embedded in his skull and an electrode array in his brain. But Arbaugh, the first user of the Neuralink brain-computer interface, or BCI, says he wouldn’t know the ...
Three decades ago, University of Utah bioengineer Richard A. Normann, PhD, had a radical new idea he hoped might create artificial sight for people who had lost their vision due to disease. If the ...
Neuroengineers were able to map the locations and activity of up to 1 million potential synaptic links in a living brain thanks to a new 3D electrode array that records the split-second evolution of ...
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 ...
