Light is quietly becoming the new language of brain technology. Instead of thick wires and skull-penetrating electrodes, a ...

A new brain device from Northwestern University is asking a daring question: what if information could reach your brain ...

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

Restoring lost senses or delivering precise brain signals has required invasive hardware and can’t mimic the brain’s natural, distributed activity patterns. This platform shows the brain can learn to ...

University of Rochester researchers have demonstrated a noninvasive method using BL-OG, or bioluminescent optogenetics, that harnesses light to activate neurons in the brain. The ability to regulate ...

Researchers have developed a noninvasive way of using bioluminescent optogenetics to activate parts of the brain. University of Rochester researchers have demonstrated a noninvasive method using BL-OG ...

Our brain is a complex organ. Billions of nerve cells are wired in an intricate network, constantly processing signals, enabling us to recall memories or to move our bodies. Making sense of this ...
