For the first time, scientists have invented a liquid ink that doctors can print onto a patient's scalp to measure brain activity. The technology, presented December 2 in the journal Cell Biomaterials, offers a promising alternative to the cumbersome process currently used for monitoring brainwaves and diagnosing neurological conditions. It also has the potential to enhance non-invasive brain-computer interface applications.

AUSTIN (KXAN) -- Researchers from the University of Texas Austin and the University of California, Los Angeles developed ink that can be printed on a person's head and measure their brainwaves. According to a news release from UT, the e-tattoos serve as, "sensors for electroencephalography (EEG), a medical test that measures the brain’s electrical activity." An EEG test can help diagnose and monitor brain tumors, sleep disorders and other brain …
