An implantable brain stimulator could revolutionize treatment for drug-resistant depression and other psychiatric disorders, researchers say.

Researchers designed an ultrathin pacemaker that can be implanted via minimally invasive techniques, potentially improving recovery time and reducing the risk of complications.

As Elon Musk’s Neuralink begins inserting chips into human brains, we trace the history of ‘mind reading’ technology and assess the potential risks and rewards

From breast implants to prosthetic knees, implants can trigger a foreign body response that results in your body rejecting them. Suppressing an immune cell gene could reduce this risk.

Researchers are exploring different ways to improve how cochlear implant users perceive speech and music in noisy environments.

They are easy to get, and far less costly than prescription hearing aids. But over-the-counter devices are not the answer for everyone with hearing issues.

An implanted device that stimulates the brain whenever it detects activity indicating food cravings shows promise in a pilot clinical trial in two patients.

Neurotechnology could mean law firms soon track ‘billable units of attention’ rather than billable hours.

A new silk-based material under skin changes color in response to oxygen in the blood. It could be adapted to track glucose and other blood components.

A wireless nerve stimulator about the size of a rice grain could replace bulkier, more invasive units to treat chronic pain and neurological diseases.
