The global coronavirus pandemic has demonstrated the necessity of engineering approaches, from research and development to rapid prototyping and production, in saving lives all across the world.
Technology that allows the human brain to communicate with an external device can help patients with some of the most severe neurological issues.
Just before the COVID-19 pandemic, 2019 marked the 100th anniversary of the school and manifesto of the Bauhaus. Now that life is slowly returning to normal, it may be a good moment to celebrate one of the most transformative educational initiatives ever, with the motivation of developing a model that could also transform BME.
Have you ever picked up a “universal remote” and have to study it for a minute before finding the power, channel, and volume buttons? Just as you settle in, a push of a wrong button puts up a panel that obscures the program, forcing another long look at the remote for the “exit” button to go back to the program. On the other hand, a tutorial was likely not needed to operate an iPhone. Why is that?

read moreGeorg F. Striedter is a professor of neurobiology and behavior in the School of Biological Sciences at University of California at Irvine, Irvine, CA, USA. His career-long research interest “in the evolution of vertebrate brains and behavior” has led him to accept “the challenge of synthesizing experimental data that are already published”.
