MIT researchers are using living cells to target diseased brain areas and deliver tiny electronic devices that can modulate ...

At the heart of this research is a miniaturized transcranial optogenetic neural stimulator. This innovative device operates wirelessly, enabling real-time modulation of cortical activity. Key features ...

At first glance, the idea sounds implausible: a computer made not of silicon, but of living brain cells. It’s the kind of ...

Personalized, adaptive deep brain stimulation (DBS) can enhance the control of motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) compared with standard DBS, new research suggests. In a blinded randomized ...

In a lab rack that looks more like a high-end audio system than a server, clusters of human brain cells are quietly learning to process information. Electrodes feed them signals, nutrients keep them ...

A small study shows cognitive improvements in patients with AD following treatment with an in-home gamma sensory stimulation ...

Brain–machine interfaces (BMIs) represent a transformative field at the intersection of neuroscience, engineering and computer science, allowing for direct communication between the brain and external ...

Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center neurosurgeons offer deep brain stimulation, a brain stimulator device, to treat movement disorders. Learn more.

The institute Fried is founding at Reichman University will explore more than direct brain stimulation and hybrid brains. "We’re bringing together people from different disciplines to examine all ...

Deep brain stimulation can significantly reduce depressive symptoms in some individuals. Knowing what to expect before and after the procedure may help you determine if it’s right for you. Deep brain ...
