If you want to perform searches against the index: https://archive.org/search.php?query=creator%3A%22Public+Res...

Great to see a large "Signatories to the Declaration of Support" and that it's hosted by the Internet Archive. Keep fighting the good fights my friends! :)

Any advice on how to search against this index? I can't seem to figure out the right search queries, everything I try gives no results.

For example, I'm trying to find articles with "neuroscience" or "brain-computer interface" among the keywords.

This doesn't look especially useful. You can search for small sentence fragments and get the paper title I guess? But you can already do that on Google Scholar.

You can't read the papers or see their citations or cited-bys. What's it for? Poking Elsevier?
