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.
