Quantum Sensors Measure Brain Activity with Pinpoint Accuracy BRIGHTON, England, Dec. 2, 2021 — Quantum sensors could be used to indicate early biomarkers for brain diseases in space and time, based on the results of a University of Sussex (England) study. Researchers showed that quantum sensors, when used with magnetoencephalography (MEG), can track changes in the brain, such as a slowdown in brain activity, spatiotemporally. In the future, the sensors could be used to scan patients periodically to check for changes in brain activity, according to the researchers. “The
