Brain-Computer Interfaces
The engineering behind Neuralink is praised for its innovative design, which diverges from traditional academic approaches. While surface-level brain interactions are being explored, the deeper structures—like the striatum and thalamus—hold critical insights into motivation and emotion. Various recording methods, including long electrodes, are essential for accessing these deeper areas, and they can work synergistically with optogenetics to enhance our understanding of brain functions.In this clip
