A man walking around a room wearing a helmet that records his brain function would have seemed like science fiction five years ago. Now researchers have designed a lightweight helmet with tiny ...

Using nano-MIND technology, higher-order brain functions such as emotions, sociability, and survival instincts in animals can be freely regulated through selective control of specific neurons and ...

Recently the MagQuest competition on improving the measuring of the Earth’s magnetic field announced that the contestants in the final phase have now moved on to launching their satellites within the ...

New quantum sensors measuring brain activity have the potential to revolutionize our understanding of how humans respond to sleep, movement, diet, and aging. More versatile and comfortable than ...

Physicists have unveiled a breakthrough in quantum sensing by demonstrating a 2D material as a versatile platform for next-generation nanoscale vectorial magnetometry. A team of physicists at the ...

Whereas optogenetics, which controls neurons with light, and electrical deep brain stimulation, used to treat Parkinson’s disease, both require the implantation of invasive electrodes into the brain, ...

A magnetometer is a device that measures magnetism: the direction, strength, or relative change of a magnetic field at a given location.
