We recently obtained the highest-resolution 3D images of the human brain ever taken from outside the skull. This is the first look.

Replying to @alephneuroTurns out you can make some interesting visualizations with your data set indeed.

Can ultrasound make you smell things that aren’t there? Turns out, yes! We reliably triggered distinct scents like a campfire burn or a garbage truck by targeting our brains with ultrasound. To our knowledge, this has never been done before, even in animals. This may be a

A challenge I never thought I'd have: Most of our renders of the brain were too beautiful to be used, and would make people think it was fake x.com/alephneuro/sta…

And the pictures are so tender — seeing our team through your eyes @donaldjewkes is the most cracked filmmaker out there and the secret sixth member of @alephneuroReplying to @donaldjewkes @_marleyx and @levchizhovhard to put into words how special this team is the feeling of yearning for this technology is so palpable and if you ask nicely they might just scan your brain
- Aleph repostedMe too! We actually shared our images with an endovascular neurosurgeon at UCSF and he was in disbelief. After we got over that, he told me how exciting this would be for all the different applications in stroke localization and vascular assessment.cant wait for the doctor experts comment on this one

It’s been a big week (month? year? decade?) for ultrasound and I’m getting dozens of DMs so I’m going to do another one of these “the science behind” threads. On this weeks’ edition: Aleph’s incredible images and the ultrasound science behind them. 🧵🔊We recently obtained the highest-resolution 3D images of the human brain ever taken from outside the skull.

- If you pivoted to AI from crypto a couple years ago, consider looking into ultrasound now
- Aleph repostedWe're flattered by the disbelief! It's indeed the human brain—mine. Here's us doing the recording for the first time, showing power doppler on the screen in real time Held off on sharing it so far since it's so unpolished 😂
00:00Claims highest resolution of human brain, 3d snippet shows a macaque brain 🧐 - Replying to @alephneuroAll this was done with a small team of 5. We’re hiring. The work is hard, but this future is so curious, so incisively at the center of what it means to be human, that it would be heartbreaking to look away. alephneuro.comthe story of how we got here:Today we’re sharing the most detailed scan ever taken of a living human brain. None of us were ultrasound scientists before this. We worked backwards from a desire for brain interfaces and taught ourselves physics, ultrasound, electromagnetism. This is a story four years in the
