Master's programme "Cognitive sciences and technologies: from neuron to cognition" opened the winter school with presentation of Brain-Computer Interface developed by Neuroimaging Methods Group of Centre for Cognition and Decision Making. Several students of our programme participated in the development. This technique allows direct connection of one's nervous system to computer. Brain-Computer interfaces can be used in various clinical applications such as neuroprosthetics and communication with patients in vegetative states.
