AI is changing what scientists are capable of in many, many ways. Behind the hype, the truth is that increasingly, AI helps scientists navigate papers, optimize, and even run experiments. Our new post is about what scientists are building now, and what comes next: open.substack.com/pub/e184/p/t...
In our new blog post, we talk about the history of in vitro fertilization. IVF faced sensationalist worries. Today, it does tremendous good. Now we develop the next step, to empower more families. Contact us at stories@e184.com to tell your story. open.substack.com/pub/e184/p/f...
At e184, we work on the questions that will define the next chapter in human biology. We're #hiring at our in vitro gametogenesis and ectogenesis labs, and looking to talk with experts for projects in brain-computer interfaces.
For us, Vision Weekend UK felt a bit like coming home. Huge props to the Foresight Institute for the inspiring event, and for the community they've nurtured over the last forty years. open.substack.com/pub/e184/p/a...
A Lively Community
We went to Foresight Vision Weekend UK to showcase what’s in store. We found an open-minded community ready to change the world.

This week, we're partnering with the Foresight Institute to showcase how the limits of biology are close to being overcome. Read our Substack post for a preview: open.substack.com/pub/e184/p/g...
At e184, what we're building matters. We're #hiring at our in vitro gametogenesis and artificial womb labs, and looking to talk with experts for projects in brain-computer interfaces.
Our advisor Daniele Faccio brings a physicist's spirit to improving brain imaging technology. In this interview, we chatted with him about his career, his motivation, and the dynamics he sees driving neurotechnology and #BCI in the future. Link to the post: open.substack.com/pub/e184/p/a...
Our two BCI events brought together different people, in different places. But they both build one community, and it's a key one for #BCI. Thanks to our co-organizers, and the panelists, speakers, mentors, and hackathon judges who made it all possible. open.substack.com/pub/e184/p/t...
Perfusion engineering has been a game-changer on multiple scales, across the life sciences and #biotech. Know someone who's doing something cool with perfusion? Give them a shout-out! open.substack.com/pub/e184/p/h...

Let that sentence sink in. Right now, fewer people get to use high-quality #BCI than get to experience spaceflight. We're working to change that.

We welcome Gavin, CEO of our new lab, e184 BAI, in the UK. He and Anis Rahman have extensive experience pushing the state of the art in magnetometers. We are glad to have him on the team, working towards technologies that will enhance human cognition and enable real-time collaboration with AI. #BCI
Gavin Morley@gavinmorley.bsky.social · 7mo agoI'm very excited to anounce that I'm Co-Founder and CEO at e184 BAI. As AI advances, having a way to work more closely with it is ever more important. That's why we're developing sensitive magnetometers for magnetoencephalography (MEG) towards building a brain-computer interface.
More than ten years after the first successes, uterine transplantation is still an extremely rare procedure. For the few who benefit from it, it can be enormously important. What can it teach us for the next stage in reproductive technology? #ART #ArtificialWombs open.substack.com/pub/e184/p/l...

IEEE Brain@ieeebrain.bsky.social · 9mo agoInteresting #brain computer interface breakthrough - researchers now have a way to auto-recalibrate #iBCIs using a hidden #MarkovModel, keeping cursor control stable for months with no manual tuning. It may enable long-term #BCI use. Details at @natbiomedeng.nature.com: go.nature.com/3KP0ppv
