Brain-computer interface system - commands from the brain, registered as small electrical changes, are picked up by a tiny electrode and control a cursor on a computer screen.

The Ohio breakthrough used a technique called to identify the pattern of electrical impulses in the part of the brain that controls movement – the motor cortex – that was generated when ...

UCSF scientists have shown that a key brain structure in the Bengalese finch acts as a learning hub, receiving information that helps to improve its song, a finding which may lead to new ways to treat ...

[Davide Gironi] built a brushless motor controller from the ground up using an ATmega8 as the brain. If you want to understand every aspect of a subject this is how to do it.

Biomedical engineers are developing methods for decoding the conversation, by analyzing electrical patterns in the motor control areas of the brain.

For nearly a century, scientists have known that different parts of the human brain's cortex control different body movements. This fundamental discovery dates to the 1930s, when neurosurgeons ...

A study reveals that motor control in the brain is modular and adaptable. Using optogenetics and imaging in mice, researchers identified horizontal networks that reorganize as new skills are learned.
