Brain Chips monthly recap. Mission: to make high bandwidth Brain Chips like #Neuralink possible. Neuro PhD. AI🤖ML👾Data Sci 📊 Monkeys🐵Future🚀Cyberpunk⚡🦾🌌
Yet this device helped build the scientific and engineering bedrock that allowed Neuralink to move so fast. One has to be humble and remember: we are standing in the shoulders of giants.
This is the Utah Array, it is still in active use in brain research labs and clinical trials today. Neuralink’s super thin wires are a gentler, safer, better approach.
A Chardack-Greatbatch, the first fully implanted pacemaker, on display at the NYSE. Went into first human patient in 1960. In some ways everything has changed, in other ways nothing much has changed at all!
Build the next generation of communication BCIs with us—now hiring a new postdoc! Application here: docs.google.com/forms/d/1IWbGv…

Are we headed toward a technology revolution in therapeutic BCI? I just wrote this piece about why I believe neurotech will become an indispensable tool for addressing the growing mental health crisis and become as common as personal computing. 🧵 open.substack.com/pub/brainjacob… #BCI
Excited to launch our NIH-funded project on wireless doped diamond brain electrodes💎🧠 Built in America, powered by taxpayers, this tech aims to restore sensation, improve neurotherapies, & cut through brain fog w light news.engineering.pitt.edu/diamonds-in-th… #NIH #NeuralEngineering #MadeInUSA
Felt the same vibes at the last BCI meeting. Although the map is more of a list, the spirit is what matters.
neurotech in 2025 is what AI was in 2017 yet, the state of this generationally important technology is virtually unknown to those outside of a small community. we're releasing a map (see below) to help the world understand the field -- the tradeoffs between contending…
this was a blast — great job @DanAkarca @markdhumphries @neuralreckoning (and yes, london was legitimately hot enough that I wore shorts while giving a talk)
We had an incredible gathering at UK Neural Computation 2025 @imperialcollege last week 🇬🇧 Macron missed out... Some of the UK's very best at the frontier of theoretical and empirical neural computation: The timing really couldn't be better for impact at scale bridging theory to…

Adding this to the list of videos to watch when remembering in a dark lab corner how hard is to do BCIs but why is it worth doing it 🥲
Game changing technology!
The transformation from mere mortal to full Neuralink cyborg is complete! #Neuralink #ALSWarrior #BrainComputerInterface #HopeThroughTech #MindControlTech #FYP @neuralink
Beautiful is too short of a word. Glutamate being released into synapses. Made possible by an indicator developed by @abhi_aggarwal1, @PodgorskiLab, and team in @AllenInstitute To my knowledge, this was impossible before.
