Brain-computer interfaces utilize sensors situated within or around the skull to decode neural activity. A significant advancement in recent years has been the integration of large language models (LLMs)—similar to the technology behind ChatGPT—directly into these devices. This combination enables far greater precision in translating thoughts into text or audio commands compared to traditional data […]

World’s first scan of dying brain reveals final moments
Wave patterns showed activity similar to dreaming, memory recall and meditation For the first time ever, scientists have recorded the activity of a dying human brain, discovering that it showed the same patterns as seen during dreaming, memory recall and meditation, a new study has revealed. Findings published in journal Frontiers in Ageing Neuroscience on […]
Safer way to deliver drugs to brain revealed in new study
Scientists claim that ultrasound pulses help medicine carriers to “non-invasively” pass the blood-brain barrier A team of researchers in the UK claims to have identified a better and safer way to deliver drugs right to the brain by using ultrasound pulses to “non-invasively” clear the way for the carriers – medicine-filled lipid balls, known as […]
Elon Musk nears human testing of brain chip
Billionaire’s neurotechnology firm is hiring clinical trial staffers as it awaits regulatory approval Neuralink, the US neurotechnology firm co-founded by billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, has begun recruiting key employees to run its clinical trials, signaling that it’s inching closer to starting human testing of its brain implants. The company has posted advertisements to hire a […]
US media reports claim China deep in ‘brain warfare research’
China’s new military strategy reportedly is not to destroy but to paralyze and control the enemy During the last few years, a research institute in China has been busy developing weapons that would be able to “paralyze” enemies rather than killing them, US media reports claim. The Washington Times translated and analyzed three 2019 reports […]
Study reveals how Covid affects the brain
The SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes Covid-19 can within days move from the respiratory system into the brain, heart, and nearly every organ system in the body, and stay there for months, a new study says. A team from the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) described their research as the “most comprehensive analysis” to date […]
Paralyzed man with brain chip posts ‘first direct-thought’ tweet
A company that implants neural computer interfaces into the brain says a patient with a nervous system disease that left him motionless was able to share a post on social media by just thinking it. A 62-year-old man in Australia diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) – a disease that causes paralysis – is now […]
Scientists force human brain cells into Matrix-like simulation
Human brain cells cultured in a petri dish and assisted by microelectrodes picked up the art of playing the ‘Pong’ video game significantly faster than AI did. Researchers at Australia’s Cortical Labs harnessed hundreds of thousands of human brain cells grown on top of arrays of microelectrodes, teaching the biotechnological hybrid they dubbed ‘DishBrain’ to […]
