(A) Approximate brain size of human and macaque, which is a widely used experimental nonhuman primate. (B) Imaging methods for the detections of brain structure and function. (C) Different types of ...

When we think of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) that use electrodes, we usually think of Utah arrays that are placed directly on the brain during open brain surgery, or with thin electrodes spliced ...

Whether subconscious breathing or intentional operations like walking, reaching and grabbing, every action of the human body comes from a signal transmitted through the nervous system of a powerful ...

Biomedical engineers at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory have developed a new way to make small, flexible neural electrodes. They used a 2.5-D printing process to create flat patterned ...

Brain researchers have relied on devices called microelectrode arrays for decades, but the technology behind these tools is increasingly outdated. Precision Neuroscience is building a modern ...

Arrays of metal electrodes are often used in medical procedures that require monitoring or delivering electrical impulses in the body, such as brain surgery and epilepsy mapping. However, the metal ...

Scientists have made great strides in developing soft “biocompatible” electrodes. But comparatively less attention has gone toward how to actually get these devices—which have wide applications in ...
