“It’s proof of concept that we can record information from the brain, analyse it in a way similar to the biological network, and return it to the brain,” says Mintz, who presented the work this month at the Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence meeting in Cambridge, UK. (…)

“This demonstrates how far we have come towards creating circuitry that could one day replace damaged brain areas and even enhance the power of the healthy brain,” says Francisco Sepulveda of the University of Essex in Colchester, UK (…)

“This is very demanding because of the decrease of [neural] signal quality due to artefacts caused by movement,” says Robert Prueckl of Guger Technologies in Graz, Austria, who is working with Mintz.
