Researchers propose a novel closed-loop system merging brain-computer interfaces and peripheral nerve stimulation to enable real-time, adaptive therapy for neuropsychiatric disorders like depression and ADHD. This approach dynamically tailors treatment to individual brain signals, overcoming limitations of one-size-fits-all methods. The technology promises precision neuromodulation, targeting specific neural circuits without invasive surgery.
Researchers at the University of Southampton have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) tool that can spot hard-to-see objects lodged in patients’ airways better than expert radiologists.
In a study published in npj Digital Medicine, the AI model outperformed radiologists in checking CT scans for objects that don’t show up well on scans.
