Researchers at Forschungszentrum Jülich and RWTH Aachen University have developed a new type of electronic material that mimics how the brain processes information—using light instead of electricity. These materials, called organic photoelectrochemical transistors (OPECTs), are designed to behave like synapses, the

A comprehensive review published in Advanced Science has mapped the evolution of implantable brain-computer interfaces (iBCIs), which decode brain signals to control external devices like robotic limbs or communication tools. The study identified 112 trials involving 80 participants, nearly half published since
