How many brain cells does it take to play a game of Doom?

BrainWhisperer is Tether’s Brain-to-text project. Tether is earmarking resources to build technologies that push the borders of intracranial electrocortical decoding. The latest result is a variable ...

Researchers at Australian start-up Cortical Labs have taught human neurons grown on a chip to play the classic Doom game. In 2021, they had already used 800,000 neurons to play Pong. Now, with four ...

A biocomputer powered by lab-grown human brain cells has leveled up from Pong to Doom. While nowhere ready to handle the video game shooter’s most challenging levels, researchers at Cortical Labs in ...

An important milestone has been achieved in brain-computer interface (BCI) technology. A new peer-reviewed study published in Nature Biomedical Engineering shows how a high-performance brain-computer ...

O. Rose Broderick reports on the health policies and technologies that govern people with disabilities’ lives. Before coming to STAT, she worked at WNYC’s Radiolab and Scientific American, and her ...

The crackle of electricity inside your brain has long been too complex to decode. Artificial intelligence is changing that.

Five years post-spinal injury, a patient is back on his feet. The NeuCyber Matrix BMI System (Beinao-1) made it possible.

"If the neurons fire in a specific pattern, the Doom guy shoots." The post Researchers Get Human Brain Cells Running Doom ...

China’s brain-computer interface industry is rapidly scaling from research to commercialization, driven by strong policy support, expanding clinical trials, and growing investor interest.

After training neurons to play Pong, the team is back, and this time the brain cells are slaying demons with super shotguns.
