THE SPIKE

Every neural interface begins with something measurable: a voltage.

From resting potential to a millisecond-long action potential, this is where the BCI story really starts.

Not mind reading. Neural activity, captured and decoded.

The squid is a fascinating cephalopod with a donut shaped brain, three hearts and blue blood. It has also helped physiologists solve the mystery of how nerves transmit signals. 'Jet propulsion' reveals the full story 🔗 buff.ly/N56wMMR

Are “surface waves” and “axoplasmic pressure waves” in neurons distinct phenomena?

We argue they are two views of the same physical process.
