Brain-Computer Interfaces Webinar

About This EventJoin us for an engaging, accessible webinar on the real-world state of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) with Dr. Jamie Brannigan, physician, BCI researcher, and lead of the Brain-Computer Interface Priority Setting Partnership. Whether you’re living with spinal cord injury, motor neuron disease, stroke, or supporting someone who is, this session will cut through headlines to give you a clear, accurate picture of what BCI devices can( and cannot) do today, and what to expect as they approach clinical trials in the UK.
