Join us on 8 July, 2026 at 9:00 AM (PST) for Episode 2 of the Revolutionizing EEG webinar series, featuring Dr. Eli Kinney-Lang from the University of Calgary and the renowned BCI4Kids Laboratory at the Alberta Children's Hospital.

Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are transforming the way individuals interact with technology, enabling communication and control through neural activity alone. As BCI technology continues to mature, researchers and developers are increasingly exploring its potential beyond the laboratory—bringing practical, real-world applications to individuals with complex medical and physical challenges.

At the same time, accessibility has become a major focus within the digital media and gaming industries. This convergence has created exciting new opportunities to leverage neurotechnology to make interactive experiences more inclusive and empowering.

In this webinar, Dr. Kinney-Lang will discuss how modern BCI systems are being developed, adapted, and translated into everyday applications for children and adults living with complex medical needs. Drawing on the pioneering work of the BCI4Kids laboratory, the session will explore how brain-computer interface technology is enabling accessible gaming, enhancing participation, and improving quality of life through innovative neurotechnology solutions.

Key Topics

  • The latest advances in brain-computer interface (BCI) technology
  • Translating BCI research from the laboratory into real-world environments
  • Accessible gaming and interactive technologies for individuals with disabilities
  • Challenges and opportunities in deploying practical BCI systems
  • Insights from the BCI4Kids program and clinical neurotechnology research

About the Revolutionizing EEG Series

As advanced dry EEG technologies continue to evolve, neuroscience research is increasingly moving beyond traditional laboratory settings and into the real world. Researchers can now investigate brain activity during naturalistic behavior, capturing neural processes where cognition, interaction, and decision-making naturally occur.

Revolutionizing EEG showcases leading researchers who are leveraging next-generation EEG and neurotechnology solutions to advance neuroscience, clinical research, neurorehabilitation, and brain-computer interface applications in real-world environments.
