Researchers have developed a brain-computer interface that can synthesize natural-sounding speech from brain activity in near real time, restoring a voice to people with severe paralysis.

Although it’s still experimental, they hope the brain-computer interface could someday help give voice to those unable to ...

Beyond its energizing effects, caffeine can also influence cognitive performance, memory, mood regulation and even long-term ...

Neurons communicate with each other by passing millisecond-long signals across tiny junctions called synapses. Experiences ...

The 'mind-reading' interface now mimics natural language instead of sounding like a piece of outdated text-to-speech software ...

The research team overcame the issue of latency – the delay between a person's intent to speak and the production of sound – by leveraging advances ...

The device was tested on a 47-year-old woman with quadriplegia who lost her ability to speak after a stroke. Doctors placed the brain-computer implant during surgery as part of a clinical trial, The ...

Using recent advances in AI-based modeling, researchers from UC Berkeley and UC San Francisco developed a neuroprosthesis that synthesizes brain signals into audible speech in near-real time. The ...
