Aug. 28, 2023 Researchers have succeeded in transforming brain signals into audible speech. By decoding signals from the brain through a combination of implants and AI, they were able to predict the words people ...
Aug. 23, 2023 An understanding of how words can be broken down into smaller units of meaning plays a key role when deaf and hard of hearing children learn to read, analysis ...
Aug. 23, 2023 Researchers have developed a brain-computer interface (BCI) that has enabled a woman with severe paralysis from a brainstem stroke to speak through a digital ...
Aug. 22, 2023 Researchers study the impact of hearing loss on subjects' enjoyment of different music mixes. They played different music mixes to listeners with and without hearing loss and found that those ...
Aug. 17, 2023 A team of researchers has demonstrated that the key to understanding working memory relies not only on what one is storing in memory, but also why. This is the 'working' part of working ...
Aug. 15, 2023 For those with neurological or developmental disorders compromising speech, brain machine interfaces could help them communicate. But today's interfaces are slow and, from electrodes placed on ...
Aug. 14, 2023 A deafened adult cannot recover the ability to hear, because the sensory hearing cells of the inner ear don't regenerate after damage. In two new studies scientists explain why this is the case ...
Aug. 14, 2023 Using a novel approach of precision neuroimaging and high-resolution functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), neuroscientists and physicists have discovered previously unknown cortical networks ...
Aug. 10, 2023 Unlike previously thought, it turns out that speech production and singing are supported by the same circuitry in the brain. Observations in a new study can help develop increasingly effective ...
Aug. 9, 2023 In a small, exploratory study, levels of certain types of microbes in babies' guts were shown to be associated with performance in tests of early cognitive ...
Aug. 9, 2023 Neuroscientists find that key neurons in the front of the brain act as 'traffic control' to manage our attention to visual stimuli, and help us focus despite ...
Aug. 8, 2023 Scientists studied the behavior of the locusts and how the neurons in their brains responded to appealing and unappealing odors to learn more about how the brain encodes for preferences and how it ...
Aug. 8, 2023 The world of at-home stroke rehabilitation is growing near, after the development of an EEG headset that connects the brain of stroke patients to powered exoskeletons for rehabilitation ...
Aug. 8, 2023 People with albinism often have poor vision. A new study reveals the underlying ...
Aug. 4, 2023 How people feel about their sleep has a greater impact on their well-being than what sleep-tracking technology says about their sleep quality, research has ...
Aug. 2, 2023 New research has found that humans were only able to detect artificially generated speech 73% of the time, with the same accuracy in both English and ...
Aug. 1, 2023 In a sample of nearly 3,000 older adults who took vision tests and cognitive tests during home visits, the risk of dementia was much higher among those with eyesight problems -- including those who ...
Aug. 1, 2023 When a fragrance wafted through the bedrooms of older adults for two hours every night for six months, memories skyrocketed. Participants in this study reaped a 226% increase in cognitive capacity ...
Aug. 1, 2023 Para-cresol is an aromatic compound with a strong horse stable-like odor. It contributes to the off-flavor of some foods, but it is also detectable as a characteristic odorant in whiskey and tobacco, ...
July 28, 2023 Scientists have found a way to use nanotechnology to create a 3D 'scaffold' to grow cells from the retina -- paving the way for potential new ways of treating a common cause of ...
