Nature Index 2024 Neuroscience

Benefitting from advanced imaging and modelling techniques and genetic tools that enable targeted research, neuroscience has undergone remarkable progress in recent decades. But fundamental questions about how cognitive function emerges from patterns of brain activity remain unsolved, which limits treatment options for neurological conditions. As large-scale neuroscience initiatives in some countries wind down, enthusiasm for cutting-edge implantable devices is ramping up, and time will tell if the United States' lead in this area can be challenged.
