New deep brain stimulation device coupled with powerful AI may improve therapy for treatment-resistant depression
Two BRAIN-funded studies in small groups of individuals demonstrate inclusion of DBS in therapy may improve treatment.
Discovering the different cell types of the brain is fundamental to understanding their function in health and disease.
Today, the National Institutes of Health announces the third transformative project supported by the Brain Research Through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies® (BRAIN) Initiative called BRAIN Initiativ
The findings shed light on how the brain processes music and could help brain-computer interfaces to produce more natural-sounding speech.
The early feasibility study will investigate the safety of BCI device implantation and its efficacy for daily digital tasks in patients with paralysis.
In June, we welcomed more than 2,000 members of the BRAIN community—1,250 attending virtually—to the 9th Annual BRAIN Initiative Meeting.
Researchers played Pink Floyd’s “Another Brick in the Wall, Part 1,” to patients, recording the brain’s electrical activity. The objective was to reconstruct what the patients were hearing.
By combining single-cell sequencing with methods to map the spatial location of gene expression, scientists are unravelling the extraordinary cellular diversity of the brain.
Stimulating the brain with electricity has been used for 30 years to treat Parkinson’s disease. Now, researchers are testing whether it could help restore hand and arm motion.
Newsletters will spotlight different BRAIN Initiative investigators with tools, technologies, and/or theories ready for distribution to the research community to advance the field of neurotechnology.
