What if it were possible to decode the internal language of individuals deprived of the ability to express themselves? This is the objective of a team of neuroscientists from the University of Geneva ...

Neuroscientists have long listened to the brain’s electrical spikes, but those loud crackles are only the final output of a ...

Restoring communication Jerry Tang and colleagues at The University of Texas at Austin have developed a language decoder that translates brain activity data from functional MRI scans into a continuous ...
