Proud of the latest publication of the #UtrechtBCI group, published today in the New England Journal of Medicine. We show both the value and the limitations of implanted BCI technology as a communication solution for people with ALS. https://t.co/QSuH0aBLmE

The durability of communication with the use of brain–computer interfaces in persons with progressive neurodegenerative disease has not been extensively examined. We report on 7 years of independen...

A brain-computer interface surgically implanted on the brain of an ALS patient has shown success in translating brain signals into computer commands, according to a new study led by @JohnsHopkins researchers. https://t.co/oCmX7vhBZo

Excited to share our new paper published today in Advanced Science https://t.co/bY5AagfTUA. We demonstrate a speech brain computer interface that can be used to reliably control home devices. We were able to maintain 90% median accuracy without decoder recalibration for 3 months.

Have you read our latest preprint yet? We synthesized speech from the brain activity of an ALS patient. Interested in this study? We are recruiting more patients! Read all about it via
hopkinsmedicine.org
Two clinical trials using brain-computed interfaces are now recruiting participants. Learn more about eligibility and how to join.
I am very excited to share our recent work on @medrxivpreprint about an approach to synthesize speech from neural signals of an ALS patient. https://t.co/0Nr56YHCG8

New brain implants show promise in restoring speech for those who have lost their ability to communicate due to neurological diseases such as ALS and brainstem stroke. Editorial by @crone_nathan

Exciting time for the field! Two amazing studies were published this week on speech BCIs, demonstrating the huge potential of these systems. Our PI Nathan Crone wrote an article together with @UtrechtBCI's Nick Ramsey on these recent developments, read about it below 👇
Two brain–computer interfaces have been developed that bring unprecedented capabilities for translating brain signals into sentences — at speeds close to that of normal speech, and with vocabularies exceeding 1,000 words.
