We’re excited to be nominated for our work taking brain scanners to the public! We scanned 4000 brains over the last year at science events for children, families, politicians, and policy makers. See: brain-data-uon.gitlab.io/exhibition/

The brain team had some fun today playing with thermal cameras! We’re hoping to get back onto the facial temperature changes we saw with high mental workload before covid.

We tested version 2 of the public exhibition at Nottinghams Festival of Science and Curiosity 2024. Pretty fun. Basic brand feel though.

We were accepted to do the @royalsociety.bsky.social Summer Science Exhibition 2024. This was prototyping how we might do it! Luckily we had 8 months to make it better… luckily a trip to London for some training helped!

In 2023 we applied to run a public engagement exhibition stand at the @royalsociety.bsky.social - this was part of our video submission.

Oh look. Our first time playing with a Mendi! (consumer #fnirs). Casually ordering a coffee while wearing a brain scanner around campus.

We managed another social after Covid! The Brain Data Group grew! This included Alex, Adrian, and Elizabeth who joined as postdocs just before Covid. Serena who was towards the end of the PhD, and Johann just beginning. Horia had become an Ass Prof too.

2022 we proposed the next 20 years timeline for consumer neurotechnology, as Cognitive Personal Informatics, drawing a parallel to physical activity tracking. #cogPI

2022 we could also start to imagine a future living with personal brain scanners, thanks to new AI tools. Thanks Dall-E!
