That single capability converts the vasculature into a delivery bus addressed by an external transducer. - **Canonical cluster:** [[wiki/molecular neural interfaces|molecular neural interfaces]] - **INF-0033 — Analytic.** Functional ultrasound reads blood-flow dynamics, a proxy signal with seconds-scale physics, and any interface built on it inherits that time constant. The forward path is not faster hemodynamics but hybrid operation — acoustic read of slow state, molecular read of fast events. - **Canonical cluster:** [[wiki/molecular neural interfaces|molecular neural interfaces]] - **INF-0038 — Analytic.** Acoustoelectric sensing uses ultrasound to tag the location of electrical activity, recovering spatial precision from a diffuse electrical measurement. It is the only current approach that promises electrode-grade localization with no electrode, and British state research funding is upstream of it. - **Canonical cluster:** [[wiki/molecular neural interfaces|molecular neural interfaces]] - **INF-0044 — Plausible.** Transcranial focused ultrasound already modulates deep structures without genetic modification, which gives the modality a clinical on-ramp independent of sonogenetics. The therapy indication funds the hardware, and the hardware is the same hardware the interface needs. - **Canonical cluster:** [[wiki/molecular neural interfaces|molecular neural interfaces]] - **INF-0045 — Plausible.** Molecular recorders that write neural activity into DNA inside the cell would remove bandwidth from the readout path entirely: the record is made locally and read once, later, by sequencing. That inverts the entire acquisition architecture and makes whole-population recording a sequencing-cost problem. - **Canonical cluster:** [[wiki/molecular neural interfaces|molecular neural interfaces]]
