Scientists create lightweight, hairlike electrode for long-term, non-invasive EEG monitoring of brain activity.

The Neuropixels Ultra probe enhances the ability to capture electrical activity from thousands of individual brain cells simultaneously, improving insights into how they form networks that control behavior.

Soft hydrogel sensors offer better fit and signal quality for future neural monitoring applications.

Memory strongly depends on the activity of neurons, but other brain cells called astrocytes also play a crucial role in memory processes.

Scientists have identified a series of molecular timers across different brain regions that determine whether a memory is forgotten quickly or preserved for a lifetime.

New research reveals that the brain prepares for seeing objects by first tuning to general categories like color or movement, then sharpening to precise details.

Engineered proteins cross the protective blood-brain barrier to track gene activity through simple blood tests, helping speed research toward personalized treatments for brain disorders.

MIT researchers propose a roadmap for using transcranial focused ultrasound to probe brain activity and understand how thoughts and sensations emerge from neural circuits.

This device, smaller than a grain of salt, wirelessly transmits brain activity data from living animals for over a year, advancing options for long-term neural monitoring and bio-sensing.
