| 'Deepfaking the mind' could improve brain-computer interfaces for people with disabilities Posted: 18 Nov 2021 05:36 PM PST Researchers are using generative adversarial networks (GANs) -- technology best known for creating deepfake videos and photorealistic human faces -- to improve brain-computer interfaces for people with disabilities. The team successfully taught an AI to generate synthetic brain activity data. The data, specifically neural signals called spike trains, can be fed into machine-learning algorithms to improve the usability of brain-computer interfaces (BCI). |
| How grandmothers' brains react to the sight of their grandchildren Posted: 16 Nov 2021 05:15 PM PST Scientists have scanned grandmothers' brains while they're viewing photos of their young grandchildren -- providing a neural snapshot of this special, inter-generational bond. |
| Prions may channel RNA’s messages Posted: 15 Nov 2021 12:10 PM PST Prions, aggregates implicated in neurological diseases, may also have an important function in helping regulate the transcription of messenger RNA in memory formation. |
| Evidence dyslexia affects children’s visual processing beyond just reading Posted: 15 Nov 2021 12:10 PM PST First study combining multiple new methods to understand visual processing and brain activity in dyslexia could improve understanding of which brain processes are affected by the condition, and potentially improve interventions. |
| Mysteries of the aging Down syndrome brain Posted: 15 Nov 2021 12:07 PM PST Molecular changes within the aging brains of individuals with Down syndrome could help explain why these individuals tend to develop Alzheimer's later in life, says new research. |
