Osher Lifelong Learning Institute
Mind Meets Machine: Innovations in Neurotechnology
Speaker
Professor Gert Cauwenberghs
Coordinator
James LaCombe
Discover how combining neurotechnology with
smart, low-power systems can improve the way
we connect with technology. This lecture will
discuss exciting advancements in tiny, energy-
efficient neural interfaces that can make hands-free
communication, health monitoring and biofeedback
therapy more effective and comfortable. We will
explore cool wearable gadgets like in-ear sensors
that track brain and body activity effortlessly, paving
the way for continuous health monitoring and new
applications in neurological care.
