The Brain-Computer Interface (#BCI, #BMI) 🧠 community has been abuzz thanks to this ground-breaking research from AI at Meta and BCBL on decoding text directly from brain signals. We're highlighting the key aspects of this paper for those who haven't had the time to read it yet.

NeuraSearch Laboratory is thrilled to be part of the University of Strathclyde Neurotechnology Centre launch! 🚀 Great talks so far from Prof Tim Denison and Daniel Palanker. A big step forward for AI-driven innovation in neuroscience! #Neurotechnology #AI #Innovation

Wrapping up today’s sessions, chaired by Yashar Moshfeghi! Two fantastic talks by Professor Simon Schultz and Professor Simon Hanslmayr. What an inspiring and informative day celebrating the launch of the Neurotechnology Centre University of Strathclyde! #innovation #collaboration #Neuroscience

🚨Very happy to say that our full paper (\w Yashar Moshfeghi) titled "Towards Brain Passage Retrieval: An Investigation of EEG Query Representations' has been accepted as a full paper for #SIGIR2025 You can find the preprint here (arxiv.org/abs/2412.06695) SIGIR 2025 NeuraSearch Laboratory

We are thrilled to announce that our research group has had two papers accepted for presentation at the 48th International ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval (SIGIR 2025 ) in Padua, Italy! 🎉

The first paper, titled “Towards Brain Passage Retrieval An Investigation of EEG query representations” was accepted to the full paper track, authored by Niall McGuire and Yashar Moshfeghi, introduces a framework that enables direct retrieval of passages from users' brain signals.

The second paper, “Brain-Machine Interfaces & Information Retrieval Challenges and Opportunities”, a perspective paper authored by Yashar Moshfeghi and Niall McGuire , presents an inspiring vision for the future integration of Brain-Machine Interface (BMI) technologies in IR.

BCI Research Awards - Part 1/3 A couple of weeks ago, a comprehensive summary of the 2023 brain-computer interface (BCI) Research Awards was released as a chapter in the SpringerBriefs in Electrical and Computer Engineering book series.

Our NeuraSearch Laboratory has just released the preprint of our upcoming SIGIR 2025 Perspective Paper: "Brain-Machine Interfaces & Information Retrieval: Challenges and Opportunities." arxiv.org/abs/2504.10371

In this comprehensive paper, Dr Yashar Moshfeghi and Niall McGuire present a structured analysis of how Brain-Machine Interface technologies could fundamentally transform information access systems. The work identifies critical research opportunities across three dimensions:
