Ismael Seáñez’s lab develops brain wave decoder that may help in spinal cord injury rehabilitation

Shantanu Chakrabartty’s team has developed a problem-solving architecture modeled on neurobiology that leverages quantum mechanical behavior to guarantee optimal solutions to complex problems

New USC research offers an unseen insight into how the brain shifts gears. This new understanding of the brain that could improve Parkinson’s treatments. The researchers discovered that our innate ability to make quick changes in motor function are the result of a unique brain mechanism. A new study from USC’s Alfred E. Mann Department of Biomedical Engineering has harnessed a complex mathematical model to reveal that this switch is not an extension of stopping but a unique action that actively suppresses the previous one, enabling a seamless transition to the new target.

BU researchers develop a brain-inspired algorithm that can help people with hearing loss pick out conversations in noisy, crowded spaces.
