Abstract
As part of our special issue on neurotechnology, we spoke with Edward Chang, Margaret Liu Collins and Edward B. Collins distinguished Professor and Chair of neurosurgery at the University of California, San Francisco, about the evolution of speech brain–computer interfaces (BCIs). He discusses how advances in AI are accelerating the translation of BCIs into the clinic, the challenge of restoring natural communication, and why large-scale neural datasets may ultimately help build computational models of the human brain.
作为神经技术特刊的一部分,我们采访了加州大学旧金山分校神经外科杰出教授Edward Chang、Margaret Liu Collins和Edward B. Collins,讨论了语音脑机接口(bci)的发展。他讨论了人工智能的进步如何加速了脑机接口的临床应用,恢复自然交流的挑战,以及为什么大规模的神经数据集最终可能有助于建立人类大脑的计算模型。
期刊介绍:
Nature Neuroscience, a multidisciplinary journal, publishes papers of the utmost quality and significance across all realms of neuroscience. The editors welcome contributions spanning molecular, cellular, systems, and cognitive neuroscience, along with psychophysics, computational modeling, and nervous system disorders. While no area is off-limits, studies offering fundamental insights into nervous system function receive priority.
The journal offers high visibility to both readers and authors, fostering interdisciplinary communication and accessibility to a broad audience. It maintains high standards of copy editing and production, rigorous peer review, rapid publication, and operates independently from academic societies and other vested interests.
In addition to primary research, Nature Neuroscience features news and views, reviews, editorials, commentaries, perspectives, book reviews, and correspondence, aiming to serve as the voice of the global neuroscience community.
