Recently, my colleagues and I published a study on decoding language from brain recordings made using functional MRI. Brain decoders are being developed to help restore communication to people who ...

The brain’s chatter has always been partly out of reach, with electrical spikes easy to record but the chemical whispers ...

Neuroscientists have long listened to the brain’s electrical spikes, but those loud crackles are only the final output of a ...

Brain–machine interfaces (BMIs) represent a transformative field at the intersection of neuroscience, engineering and computer science, allowing for direct communication between the brain and external ...

Emotions are an important part of human intelligence. Identifying specific emotional categories from complex neural patterns, i.e., the neural decoding of emotional information, is a key issue in ...

Before a car crash in 2008 left her paralysed from the neck down, Nancy Smith enjoyed playing the piano. Years later, Smith started making music again, thanks to an implant that recorded and analysed ...

In a recent study published in Nature Communications, researchers examine neural networks in the left language-dominant hemisphere responsible for semantic integration using intracranial recordings in ...

Inside Bill’s Brain: Decoding Bill Gates is a documentary series that delves deep into Bill Gates’ personal life and work, exploring the behind-the-scenes actions behind his achievements. Season 1 ...

It is by now old news that scientists can read out aspects of your internal conscious experience by recording neural signals. But a new study of this kind involving music is still a remarkable ...

Ever wondered how your brain decides when to act? Initiating actions with a specific goal in mind is a complex process. Previous research has identified certain parts of the brain and chemical signals ...

The human brain and body are intricate systems that have been fine-tuned over millions of years to prioritize survival. One of the ways they achieve this is by favoring the status quo, or what is ...
