CAN BRAIN-MACHINE INTERFACE BE DEVELOPED?

Can someday we would be able to listen to the thoughts of the people who cannot speak ?

Earlier looking at the electrical activity of the brain on the map the scientists were able to say to which words a person was hearing but the present gist of the scientists is toward being able to "hear" the thoughts of people who can’t speak.Scientists have been trying to understand the mechanism of our brain by which it manages to processes the audible sounds and extracts the abstract meanings of the words and sentences conveyed to it.

Tumors imaged through biocompatible Quantum dots

Quantum dots ate the small semiconductor nanoparticles that become brightly fluuorescent with sharply defined colours, giving tremendous promise as biomedical imaging agents but inclusive of one problem-most of them are made from cadmium and selenium which are potentially hazardous materials. However a collaborative effort between reasearchers of Stanford University and Xiamen University in China has been able to produce a stable ,biocompatibel quantum that appears to have the desired set of properties needed for bio-medical imaging.
