Spending the holidays with brain-computing interfaces, EEG data and Python
A few days ago I published a post on LinkedIn about my holiday project on brain-computing interfaces (BCI). I decided a blog post made more sense for me so here it goes! I have been interested in neuroscience for years. Actually, one of my first pet projects for a company was an emotional intelligence business.
