Researchers can control the behavior of monkeys by using pulses of blue light to very specifically activate particular brain cells. The findings represent a key advance for optogenetics, a state-of-the-art method for making causal connections between brain activity and behavior. Researchers say that similar light-based mind control could likely also be made to work in humans for therapeutic ends. Read More
As EEG headsets are growing in popularity with general consumers, researchers are advising better security and safety measures is needed after their study revealed how easy it could be for experienced hackers to break into the system software and monitory brain waves to extract personal information.
