"China Is Building a Brain-Computer Interface Industry

A new policy document outlines China’s plan to create an internationally competitive BCI industry within five years, and proposes developing devices for both health and consumer uses.

In a policy document released this month, China has signaled its ambition to become a world leader in brain-computer interfaces, the same technology that Elon Musk’s Neuralink and other US startups are developing.
Brain-computer interfaces, or BCIs, read and decode neural activity to translate it into commands. Because they provide a direct link between the brain and an external device, such as a computer or robotic arm, BCIs have tremendous potential as assistive devices for people with severe physical disabilities.

In the US, Neuralink, Synchron, Paradromics, and others have sprung up in recent years to commercialize BCIs. Now, China boasts several homegrown BCI companies, and its government is making the development of the technology a priority."

No #challanges , #pain , #trauma is not making you successful. Sacralization of traumatic experiences is false concept . Biology and #neurosience has different view on this. Your #brain is not learning and obtaining new knowledge in stress . Happiness , good sleep and moderate physical activity like walking really do . Your brain like divers and new experience and safety and comfortable conditions .

What are the current (mainstream or not) theories about Hippocampal #GammaRhythm ?

Like, what do we think is its role or function? Or maybe I should ask about slow gamma and fast gamma separately?

#introduction : I am a computer scientist, and I do AI for #neurosience (#NeuroAI).

My work is most well known for:
1) comparing #machinelearning and models of brain #plasticity,

2) optimization in networks of #spiking neurons.

I am currently doing my postdoc with Wulfram Gerster at #epfl

TIL: vores hjerner (både mænds og kvinders) ændres dramatisk når vi bliver forældre. For fædre er den afgørende faktor hvor meget vi er sammen med børnene i starten. Det vil sige at være længde af barsel faktisk kan have en direkte indvirkning på vores hjerne.
