Researchers have developed a neural implant that provides information about activity deep inside the brain while sitting on its surface. The implant is made up of a thin, transparent and flexible ...

A project at the University of California, San Diego has developed a transparent neural implant intended to sit on the surface of the brain and record neural activity deeper inside. Published in ...

Finding ways to reduce the invasiveness of brain implants could greatly expand their potential applications. A new device tested in mice that sits on the brain’s surface—but can still read activity ...

A new study has found that soft 3D-printed brain sensors can follow individual brain folds more closely than standard rigid ...

Differences in the physical shape and wiring of the brain can directly contribute to the development of attention and social ...

Modern technology for recording deep-brain activity involves sharp metal electrodes that penetrate the tissue, causing damage that can compromise the signal and limiting how often they can be used. A ...

You probably brace your abs before a heavy squat without thinking much about what happens above your neck. But a 2026 study ...

A high-resolution brain interface records movement signals from the brain's surface, enabling real-time control performance similar to invasive implants without entering brain tissue. (Nanowerk ...

The brain's sensitivity to rewarding experiences -- a critical factor in motivation and attention -- can be shaped by socioeconomic conditions, according to a new study. MIT neuroscientists have found ...
