Building better brains | Felix Aplin

<p>The human brain is the most complicated computer in the world, but we tend to take it for granted. By linking neuroscience and computer technologies, engineers and scientists are creating neural implants to unlock better pain management strategies, accessibility tools for people living with disabilities, and potential human enhancements. As we move into the most connected and information rich age in human history, how can we ensure that we keep our focus on this kind of big picture science so that those most vulnerable are receiving the help they need? Neuroscientist Felix Aplin has some answers. </p> <p>For more information, visit <a href="https://unsw.to/FelixAplinFODI">unsw.to/FelixAplinFODI</a></p> <p><em>This talk was a part of <a href="https://centreforideas.com/event/unthinkable">Unthinkable</a>, an event of short talks in the 2022 <a href="https://festivalofdangerousideas.com/">Festival of Dangerous Ideas</a>.</em></p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>
