neurotechnology
Neural interface science
Neurotechnology refers to devices, tools, and techniques that interact directly with the nervous system, particularly the brain.
This includes brain-computer interfaces, neural implants, and imaging technologies like fMRI that monitor or modulate neural activity.
The field spans medical applications like treating Parkinson's disease or restoring movement to paralyzed limbs, as well as emerging consumer products claiming to enhance focus or sleep.
Advances in neurotechnology raise profound ethical questions about privacy and cognitive liberty.
