Many studies over the past decades have provided exciting evidence that electrical signals recorded from the scalp (electroencephalogram, EEG) hold meaningful information about the brain’s function or dysfunction. This information is used routinely in research...
Making hand movements in response to visual cues is common in daily life. It has been well known that this process activates multiple areas in the brain, but how these neural activations progress across space and time remains largely unknown. Taking advantage of...
Our brains are excellent at making predictions about what we should hear next, based on context. These predictions help us understand and interact with our surroundings. For example, when listening to a melody, we may predict the next note in a sequence. Dr. Gerwin...
A specific part of the brain called the precentral gyrus is responsible for sending signals to the body’s muscles to make them move. Ever since the seminal work of Wilder Penfield close to 100 years ago, we have known that different areas of the precentral gyrus...
Preliminary experience with the CorTec BrainInterchange device in a canine model Dr. Gerwin Schalk, Director of the Chen Frontier Lab for Applied Neurotechnology which is affiliated with the Tianqiao and Chrissy Chen Institute (TCCI), was the lead author on a paper...
