Machine learning can process data that is imperceptible to humans from which it produces results we would expect. These inconceivable patterns (they might look like old-school TV static to us) are ...

The 100 billion neurons in your head have interconnected into a vastly complex network, and these connections can change and evolve as you “think” and “learn.” Exactly how this network architecture is ...

Are you interested in getting a taste of what this hype on Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning that you hear in the media is all about? With hundreds of new scientific publications coming out ...

Citizen Science activities certainly don’t have to cost a lot of money, and most of the projects we discuss here at DPR are essentially “free” to perform… but this project… now, this project does cost ...

Back in the day, families in general seemed to do most of the work needed for themselves by themselves, since this was really required if a family was to simply survive the day. Over the past 100 ...

Dr. John Donoghue, Professor of Neuroscience at Brown University, presented an informative, hour-long presentation at the National Institute of Health this past April covering his group’s important ...

So much science education happens in informal ways–outside of the classroom. These experiences can be so valuable and sometimes even more influential than the classic approaches taken for so long by ...

Last year, Popular Mechanics featured a great “TOP SEVEN” List of most influential amateur researchers today. The recommendations were provided by Dr. Shawn Carlson, a former Scientific American ...

Thanks to the tip from Zack Lynch that a new program from the MIT Sloan School of Management is researching the neurotechnology industry by trying to understand why innovations and business are ...

Recently, one of our brave Endeavour astronauts inadvertently let a tool bag slip through her fingers (it wasn’t properly attached initially and so caught her unexpectedly). The bag was assumed to be ...

This posting is certainly a diversion from our typical reviews, but this author is always listing to music (mostly jazz) in the background while reading and writing about neurotechnology. So, in a ...

Recently, we discussed the developments from the Wadsworth Center of a minimally-invasive, thin-film technology to enhance electrocorticography (ECoG) recordings (read). Similar to the more common ...
