This important study combines real-time key point tracking with transdermal activation of sensory neurons as a general technique to explore how somatosensory stimulation impacts behavior in freely ...

An autonomous platform uses machine learning and patterned light to detect and terminate cardiac arrhythmias in real time without electrical shocks.

Time is almost up on the way we track each second of the day, with optical atomic clocks set to redefine the way the world measures one second in the near future. Researchers from Adelaide University ...

Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis say they created a new kind of fiber-optic device that can manipulate neural activity deep in the brain. The team from both the McKelvey School of ...

A team of researchers from Washington University in St. Louis' McKelvey School of Engineering and WashU Medicine has developed a new type of fiber-optic device that can influence neuronal activity ...

Fiber-optic technology revolutionized the telecommunications industry and may soon do the same for brain research. A group of researchers from Washington University in St. Louis in both the McKelvey ...

Scientists have long struggled with how to study the gut's vast nervous system - often called the body's 'second brain' - without damaging it. Current research methods are invasive and often require ...

NEW YORK — Researchers at New York University have built a wireless capsule the size of a large vitamin that rats can swallow, giving scientists a unique way to shine light into their digestive ...
