A new paper by CNT Co-Director, Rajesh Rao, proposes an innovative conceptual framework based on artificial neural networks for bi-directional brain-computer interfaces (BBCIs). This new way of thinking about BBCI development points a viable way toward moving neural devices out of the laboratory and into real-world settings.

This two-day event, held at the CNT and the University of Washington Husky Union Building, brought students and world-class neural engineering researchers together to listen to, engage with and learn from each other.
In its eighth run, the Neural Computation and Engineering Connection, a two-day event from Jan. 24 to Jan. 25, did exactly what its title suggested: create an opportunity for researchers in neuroscience, computation and engineering to learn from each other’s’ work.
