The translation from brain to text may ultimately point to ways to help people with disabilities like paralysis communicate using just their thoughts. Image Press coverage | May 12 2021 Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute New brain implant turns visualized letters into text Brain-computer interfaces, or BCIs, can restore movement in people with paralysis and may help treat neurological and psychiatric diseases. Image Press coverage | May 12 2021 Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute Paralysed man uses ‘mindwriting’ brain computer to compose sentences A man who was paralysed from the neck down in an accident more than a decade ago has written sentences using a computer system that turns imagined handwriting into words. Image Press coverage | May 12 2021 Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute Composing thoughts: mental handwriting produces brain activity that can be turne... Scientists have developed a brain-computer interface (BCI) designed to restore the ability to communicate in people with spinal cord injuries and neurological disorders such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Image Research news | Dec 11 2020 Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute Stanford researchers develop new tool for watching and controlling neural activi... An interdisciplinary team of scientists has created a new molecular tool to help us better understand the cellular basis of behavior.

His home department, Stanford Bioengineering, asked him a to share a few stories about himself and his interests. Image Research news | Sep 28 2019 Stanford News Particle physicists lend a hand to advance neuroscience After meeting at a party, a Stanford psychologist and SLAC particle physicists have collaborated on a new kind of EEG device that can stimulate the brain and read out the effects. Image Press coverage | Jul 20 2019 SF Gate Google Glass lives on as a device to teach autistic children An 18-year-old Stanford freshman at the time, Voss began building an application that could automatically recognize images. Then he thought of his cousin, who had autism. Image Press coverage | Jul 17 2019 The New York Times Google Glass May Have an Afterlife as a Device to Teach Autistic Children Privacy concerns caused the computerized eyewear to fail with the general public. But researchers believe it could help autistic children learn to recognize emotion and make eye contact.

Image Research news | Apr 25 2019 Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute Stanford researchers’ artificial synapse is fast, efficient and durable A battery-like device could act as an artificial synapse within computing systems intended to imitate the brain’s efficiency and ability to learn. Image Research news | Apr 22 2019 Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute Stanford researchers work to genetically modify flatworms and unlock their regen... No one knows exactly how flatworms can rebuild their entire bodies from the tiniest sliver. Now, bioengineers and materials scientists are building new tools to study the worms’ awesome regenerative powers. Image Research news | Apr 9 2019 Stanford Medicine - Scope Could a vibrating glove become part of stroke therapy? Stanford researchers are collaborating to develop a vibrating glove that could improve hand function following a stroke if worn for several hours a day. Image Research news | Apr 4 2019 Stanford News Stanford, Georgia Tech researchers build a glove to treat symptoms of stroke Strokes often have a devastating impact on something most of us rely heavily on in our daily lives – our hands. Now, Stanford researchers are collaborating on a vibrating glove that could improve hand function after a stroke.
