 | Peggy Chun is a popular artist known for her bold watercolor paintings that capture the spirit of her Hawaiian home. But in 2002, the painter was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease. This debilitating neurological disorder progressively destroys a person's motor neurons. As a victim of this incurable disease, Chun can feel, see, smell, taste, think and imagine, but can no longer move in any way. She is, in the parlance of the medical profession, "locked-in." ...> Full Article |
Following ground-breaking research showing that neurons in the human brain respond in an abstract manner to particular individuals or objects, University of Leicester researchers have now discovered that, from the firing of this type of neuron, they can tell what a person is actually seeing.

...> Full Article
 | Neuroscientists have significantly advanced brain-machine interface (BMI) technology to the point where severely handicapped people who cannot contract even one leg or arm muscle now can independently compose and send e-mails and operate a TV in their homes. They are using only their thoughts to execute these actions. ...> Full Article |
