Chinese researchers have developed a cutting-edge implantable electrode that improves brain-computer interface performance by enhancing neuron health and connectivity.

By genetically altering their BCI device, scientists achieved increased neuronal activity and improved signal quality, marking a significant advance in mind-controlled technology.Chinese researchers claimed to have reached a breakthrough in brain-computer interface by engineering a new implantable electrode to help people control devices with their thoughts and improve their neuron health.

Researchers implanted electrodes into both sides of a mouse’s brain to evaluate whether their genetically altered version would increase neuronal activity. The results were positive, showing that blocking specific genes led to enhanced performance.that most efforts in this field of neuroscience, most notably Elon Musk’s Neuralink, focus on “developing biocompatible neural electrodes” that the brain won’t reject.

As published in the study, researchers with the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ National Centre for Nanoscience and Technology genetically engineered the electrode to amplify “the growth of neuronal cells and tissue surrounding it” to improve the performance of devices such as Neuralink by strengthening their connection to the neurons by making them larger.Polymer remains the material that is most cooperative with the brain, as Neuralink even uses it.

Aside from its shape, the key to its success is the genetic sequence. A coating of a drug that contains a small RNA genetic code that influences the surrounding neuronal network.precisely. For example, we knocked down PTEN in neuronal cells around the implanted BCI device.
