two BR41N.IO Hackathons are coming up (1) at IEEE SMC Conference and (2) at BCI Samara. There are programming projects (which require a BCI device) and analysis projects (no hardware included). EEG data sets are provided e.g. :mega:from ECoG recordings or :dart: EEG recordings from patients whith disorders of consciousness.
BR41N.IO BCI SAMARA October 9-10

Vertebrae is a protective layer of our brain & spinal cord. But it is also a "firewall" for non-invasive BCI as it impedes brain signals & causes the loss of useful info.

Open question ❓⁉️

READING brain activity has been around for a while. But what about writing?
Anyone knows how we can actually WRITE data (images, knowledge, skills,...,to the brain?
🤔😱🤯

A useful course (free).
