Abstract
The introduction chapter of this book described the BCI Research Awards, selection criteria, nominees, and jury. Developing a good submission for a BCI Research Award is a formidable goal, and being nominated is even more demanding. This book has presented thirteen chapters by the authors of projects nominated for a BCI Research Award in 2019. Some of these chapters detailed the projects that were nominated, while other chapters comprised interviews with nominees. In this chapter, we review the 2019 BCI Research Awards Ceremony and present the winners. We also discuss emerging directions such as online BCI-related activities that have become much more prominent during 2020 due to COVID concerns.
