Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis are developing an alternative to the current gold standard of brain imaging, functional magnetic res
Wearable brain-imaging tech aims to reveal how the brain works in natural, realistic situations. Washington University in St. Louis researchers received a National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant to develop and commercialize a brain-imaging cap that uses LED light to gauge brain activity.
It is the first work to show that sonothermogenetics can control behavior by stimulating a specific target deep in the brain
Washington [US], May 30 (ANI): During a recent study, a multidisciplinary team at Washington University in St. Louis developed a new brain stimulation technique using focused ultrasound that is able to turn on and off specific types of neurons in the brain. It can even precisely control motor activity without surgical device implantation.
Neurological disorders such as Parkinson's disease and epilepsy have had some treatment success with deep brain stimulation, but those require surgical device implantation.
