THE FUTURE IS HERE

The Promises and Pitfalls of Brain Computer Interfaces | Shivank Chhabra | TEDxYouth@HABS

Ever watched Iron Man?

Shivank Chhabra delves into the exciting world of brain-computer interfaces, a cutting-edge technology that blurs the boundaries of the future of neuroscience. Exploring the ethical and practical implications of this emerging field, Shivank sheds light on how this science fiction concept is becoming a reality before our very eyes.
Shivank Chhabra is an A Level student at Haberdashers’ Boys’ School, studying Maths, Further Maths, Physics and Economics. He is particularly captivated by the overlap between the disciplines of biology/neuroscience and electrical engineering – especially how the latter can be modelled on neurological systems. This field is of special interest to him as he wishes to investigate the theory and expand on its practical applications within medicine, locomotion and entertainment to benefit society. By giving this talk, he hopes to inspire others to research and innovate within this growing field. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
