It sounds like science fiction, but brain-powered technology is already here. In this episode of Holy Shift!, host Angela Gill Nelms sits down with Dr. Chethan Pandarinath, a neuroscientist and engineer who studies how we can read brain signals and turn them into action. From helping people communicate and move after injury to building technology that listens to the brain in real time, Chethan breaks down how this science works, why it matters, and what the future of brain-computer interfaces could look like. Expect big ideas, clear explanations, and a fascinating look at how close we really are to mind-powered technology.
