A recent meme has been messing with a lot of people’s minds and in a way, it’s similar to the ‘black and blue, or white and gold dress’ mindf*** from the last decade.
The three teams of scientists who took home this year’s honours all have one thing in common – their projects were accidental but pioneering breakthroughs.
Neuroscientists tested a brain implant on a 34-year-old man suffering from ALS. His first request after months of silence involved beer.
Lefties are routinely rejected for brain research studies, and they’re not happy about it.
Elon Musk co-founded Neuralink in 2016, and he has high hopes for facilitating a “symbiosis” between humans and AI.
Neurosurgeons will be undertaking an on-air live brain surgery in an effort to rectify an essential tremor in Parkinson’s Disease. Deep.
Neuroscientists have sent a message from one brain to another using nothing but machinery to read their electromagnetic pulses.
Researchers from the University of Washington believe this is the first “noninvasive human to human brain interface.” Which is a fancy way of explaining that this guy is very definitely controlling this other guy’s body with his MIND.
This is a little scary. The first artificially implanted memories have been created by neuroscientists at The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
Backyard Brains is a company that is attempting to bring neuroscience into the classroom with the help of RoboRoach. RoboRoach was developed to inspire young minds to find cures for neurological diseases.
American-neuroscientists from the University of Southern California, and North Carolina’s Wake Forest University believe that the restoration of lost long term memory could be achieved through brain implants within the next few years.
Thomas Friedman wrote a best-selling book about our connected world in 2004, called The World Is Flat. But that was mostly before the dawn of Facebook.
It’s always nice when the world catches up with 80’s sci-fi films. Researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, have succeeded in reconstructing people’s visual experiences using MRI and image libraries. Which means that if you click on the link you can see somebody’s brain try to replicate the Pink Panther film trailer.
