Nature: OpenAI's brain implant would use ultrasound to read minds. Does the science stand up? #ultrasound

OpenAI’s brain implant would use ultrasound to read minds. Does the science stand up?
Spin-out Merge Labs aims to rival Elon Musk’s firm Neuralink. But researchers say the technology is still at an early stage.

Calibrated simulations for dynamic focusing of ultrasound through the temporal window #ultrasound

Calibrated simulations for dynamic focusing of ultrasound through the temporal window
Focused ultrasound can be delivered through the temporal window to modulate heterogeneously located brain areas. Acoustic simulations allow for safety assessments when dynamically targeting brain structures, but the mismatch between simulation and measured focal pressure can vary across the steerable range due to mechanically inaccurate assumptions made about the skull and transducer. Here, we describe efficient methods for simulation-measurement calibration using axisymmetric projections and s…

Targeted ultrasound can shape the brain's reward-seeking mechanisms
The nucleus accumbens is a tiny element of the human brain triggered when we experience something enjoyable, and used to help us learn behaviors that lead to rewards. A new study has shown for the first time that its influence on human behavior can be altered using transcranial ultrasound stimulation (TUS).
