There has been, and continues to be, an explosion in technologies with neuroscience applications. Keeping track of them all can be daunting at times, especially for someone entering the field. I've decided to begin assembling a list of neurotechnologies into a living document. Very early draft form is below on Google Doc, still deciding on the best way format and share such a resource.

Había terminado y salé para mi cocina. Tenía hambre pero este día no había comida dentro de mi despensa. Me fui y caminé hacienda[...] la Tport—una máquina que puede transportar una persona a otro lugar sin energía y tiempo. Cuando entré la máquina, toqué algunos botónes y esperé. Pero nada ocurrió y lo hice las mismas acciones otra vez—y nada ocurrió.

How would the disappearance of streets affect the social fabric? This short story briefly (in castellano!) explores a world in which instantaneous, free transport is possible. Meant mainly to practice my spanish, i plan to follow-up with a more detail story in the future.
