TURNING POINT. "Today, researchers at Duke University announced...wiring animal brains together so they could collaborate on simple tasks. Network monkeys displayed motor skills, and networked rats performed computations. That’s right. They made a botnet out of brains." https://lnkd.in/dcJehq8 View in LinkedIn

THOUGHT INFLUENCE. "A brain-to-brain interface (BTBI) enabled a real-time transfer of behaviorally meaningful sensorimotor information between the brains of two rats. The decoder rat learned to make similar behavioral selections, guided solely by the information provided by the encoder rat's brain." http://www.nature.com/articles/srep01319 View in LinkedIn

A FIRST. "The present study demonstrates for the first time that tactile and motor information, extracted in real time from simultaneously recorded populations of cortical neurons from a rat's brain, can be transmitted directly into another subject's cortex through the utilization of a real-time BTBI."

PRESS EXPOSURE. "In a First, Experiment Links Brains of Two Rats. In an experiment that sounds straight out of a science fiction movie, a Duke neuroscientist has connected the brains of two rats in such a way that when one moves to press a lever, the other one does, too — most of the time."

RAT TELEPATHY. "The world’s first brain-to-brain connection has given rats the power to communicate by thought alone. An array of microelectrodes – each about one-hundredth the width of a human hair – was then implanted in the encoder rats’ primary motor cortex, an area of the brain that processes movement. The team used the implant to record the neuronal activity that occurs just before the rat made a decision in the lever task." (2013, first of its kind). https://lnkd.in/dtH9-QG View in LinkedIn

EXPLOSIVE NEWS. "First mind-reading implant gives rats telepathic power. Pairs of rats were even able to cooperate across continents using cyberspace. Brain signals from an encoder rat at the Edmond and Lily Safra International Institute of Neuroscience of Natal in Brazil were sent to a decoder in Nicolelis’s lab in North Carolina via the internet. Though there was a slight transmission delay, the decoder rat still performed with an accuracy similar to those of rats in closer proximity with encoders." https://lnkd.in/dtH9-QG View in LinkedIn
