The future of brain-computer interface (BCI) technology is looking bright. Scientists have just reported the first in-human recording from a novel wireless BCI device that could possibly help people ...

Noninvasive brain tech is transforming how people interact with robotic devices. Instead of relying on muscle movement, this technology allows a person to control a robotic hand by simply thinking ...

A new study identified 17 risk factors for stroke, dementia, and depression that are within your control. The risk factors ranged from health conditions to lifestyle choices, and one stood out as most ...

Fiber-optic technology revolutionized the telecommunications industry and may soon do the same for brain research. A group of researchers from Washington University in St. Louis in both the McKelvey ...

Elon Musk’s Neuralink may be the latest headline-grabber, but brain-to-computer interface (BCI) technology has been advancing for decades. Initially developed for therapeutic use, it is now poised to ...

For Martin Schrimpf, the promise of artificial intelligence is not in the tasks it can accomplish. It’s in what AI might reveal about human intelligence. He is working to build a “digital twin” of the ...

Scientists mapped hidden DNA switches in brain support cells to understand how gene control may influence Alzheimer’s disease ...

Russia is no longer content with drones that buzz like insects or glide like aircraft. Its latest experiment reaches inside the brains of living birds, wiring pigeons with neural implants so human ...

You’ve probably heard of dopamine, oxytocin, and cortisol. Maybe you know dopamine has something to do with feeling good, oxytocin is linked to bonding, and cortisol is that stress chemical you’d ...

There’s something very sci-fi about The Muse S Athena, a headband that tracks brain activity and blood flow, ready to help train your mental strength. It uses several sensors to provide insight into ...

A small lab-based study found that a 12-week cycling program improved inhibitory control over six weeks. This adds to the evidence that exercise can be an effective strategy for improving cognitive ...
