Precision Neuroscience Raises $102 Million to Advance AI-Powered Brain Implant

In breaking news, BCI startup Precision Neuroscience has raised over 100M USD to further develop their brain implant and progress in clinical trials! Precision Neuroscience Corporation has developed an innovative thin film cortical surface electrode, akin to a high resolution version of ECG grids commonly used to diagnose and treat disorders such as epilepsy.  Importantly, […]

B-CRATOS on DEEPSYNC’s platform

Since several months, the DEEPSYNC platform is online to give visibility to the Communities of Practices, their member projects and their stories. It was a pleasure for B-CRATOS to be featured within the platform. In particular, our coordinator Robin Augustine was happy to contribute with his interview in which he explained the early stages of the project, […]

The Workshop Neural Horizons: future panorama within Brain-Machine Interface is on the BCI Society’s website

The Joint Workshop Neural Horizons: future panorama within Brain-Machine Interface is now published on the Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) Society website. It will take place on 19th February, 2025 in Gardanne, France in the frame of the Braincoder Conference. The B-CRATOS, HearLight and NEMO-BMI European projects are honoured to have the Workshop represented by this international […]

Discover and register now for the Joint Workshop in Gardanne

On 19th February, 2025 a significant joint workshop organised by three major leaders in Brain-Machine Interfaces will take place in Gardanne, France. This workshop is a setellite event of the Braincoder conference. The agenda will include speakers among the B-CRATOS partners and experts from the Institut Pasteur, the CEA-Clinatec and the EPFL. More information in […]

Controlling prosthetic hands more precisely by the power of thought

B-CRATOS is excited to announce the publication of the paper Accurate neural control of a hand prosthesis by posture-related activity in the primate grasping circuit, co-written principally by our partner Andres Agudelo-Toro and Hans Scherberger. This was a multi-year effort to decode the principles of grasping actions in the brain. Andres, a neuro-engineer at DPZ, […]

B-CRATOS Consortium Meeting in Lyon

On 16 and 17 October 2024, the B-CRATOS consortium was invited to hold its Consortium Meeting near Lyon, à Romanèche-Thorins. After a warm welcome by Paul Wanda and Cyril Beguet, our colleagues from Blackrock Microsystems Europe and organisers of the whole event, we started our discussions on the project status and the objectives for the […]

Synchron Announces Positive Results from U.S. COMMAND Study of Endovascular Brain-Computer Interface

In a major step forward for next-generation implantable BCI devices, Synchron has just announced positive safety results from their COMMAND clinical trial, reporting no serious adverse events in brain/vasculature of the 6 patients enrolled over 12 months!  Impressively, surgeries had a median deployment time of 20 minutes, demonstrating a major advantage of the Stentrode technology.  […]

B-CRATOS at the Annual Meeting of the Society for Neuroscience 2024

In October 2024, our partners from DPZ participated at the Society for Neuroscience in Chicago. It was a great opportunity for them to share their research and experience with scientists from all over the world. The poster they presented was Training of real-time robotic grasp decoding from neuronal population activity in macaque motor cortex (M1). […]

Disruptive B-CRATOS approach

We are thrilled to share with you a short teaser about B-CRATOS! Electrode engineers are pushing channel count and density of modern implantable electrodes by orders of magnitude, but today’s BCI systems are unprepared to handle this volume of data.  Current day implantable neural interfaces already sacrifice both the quantity and quality of data collected, […]
