Breakthrough in Neural Interface Technology for Memory Retrieval Research
A recent paper from Loren Frank’s lab at UCSF has unveiled a significant advancement in brain-machine interface (BMI) technology, specifically designed for studying memory retrieval processes in rats. With help from SpikeGadgets, they developed a sophisticated closed-loop hippocampal neurofeedback system that allowed rats to generate specific remote spatial representations without sensory cues or physical movement toward target locations.
