About this listen
In a world where computers are everywhere, there is still one last frontier to be conquered - the brain. An age-old enigma, the three pounds of flesh in between our ears has perplexed philosophers and neuroscientists alike. With hopes of further understanding the brain and redefining the world of neuromedicine, scientists are beginning to connect the brain with computers, unlocking remarkable opportunities.
Through stories and interviews with doctors and patients, Plugged In provides an all-inclusive bird's-eye view of these brain-computer interfaces and all that they make possible, including:
- How amputees are regaining feeling through robotic limbs
- What allows blind patients to see again
- How paralyzed patients are able to move once more
- How scientists are able to record what you see
Funded by the defense department, venture capitalists, and entrepreneurs such as Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk, this technology is projected to be worth over $100 billion by 2020.
Whether you have an interest in the cutting edge of technological innovation or want to learn more about BCIs, Plugged In will introduce you to one of the largest uncharted medical fields ripe for change.
