Neuralink is onboarding patients in the UK in preparation for potential clinical trials amid a Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) boom.
FUS instruments is a manufacturer of preclinical foucsed ultrasound systems for research. We specialize in systems for brain research. We sell stereotactic and MRI-guided FUS systems as well as transducer and other accessories for focused ultrasound research.
Perhaps.
This mashup of neuroscience, artificial intelligence and even linguistics and philosophy of mind aims to crack the deep question of what ‘understanding’ is, however un-brain-like its models may be.
Scientists harnessed a new method to precisely measure the amount of information the brain can store, and it could help advance our understanding of learning.
Senescent cells, often described as zombie-like, are ones that have stopped dividing but are still alive.
Research led by the lab of Nancy M. Bonini of the School of Arts & Sciences have uncovered new details about the role of zombie-like cells in brain aging, using the fruit fly as a model.
Some children with autism experience profound, lifelong difficulties like developmental delay, social struggles and even the inability to speak. Others experience more mild symptoms that improve with time.
The core theory, weak vs. strong emergence, micro-reductionism, and Sean Carroll’s skeptical argument against everything. Is Dr. Carroll correct in holding that physics has ruled out the afterlife, an immaterial soul, fundamental consciousness, and parapsychology?

The Elemind headband is a soft, lightweight, and flexible wearable designed to be worn throughout the night, regardless of one’s sleeping position. It can collect information using brainwaves and pairs with a smartphone, where users can find details about their sleep patterns.
Where the headband is effective is its ability to use neuromodulation to impact the brainwaves, directing them from wakeful patterns to those of deeper sleep. “Elemind works like noise-cancellation for the brain. You can switch off the world, switch off the stress, and go to sleep faster,” explained Meredith Perry, the CEO and co-founder of Elemind.
