Researchers have developed a new neural interface that is able to relay commands from the central nervous system to a robotic prosthesis. Read More
Researchers have developed a new method of restoring movement sensation for upper limb amputees. The researchers used small robots to vibrate muscles in order to 'turn on' movement sensations. Read More
Researchers publish guidelines to help determine whether a patient is psychologically suitable for bionic hand reconstruction following amputation. Read More
Researchers report massive cortical reorganization was reversed in a child who received a double hand transplant following amputation in infancy. Read More
Researchers have discovered specific neurochemical changes in brain regions associated with brain remapping following amputation. Also, these changes may persist once the limb is reattached. Read More
A new 'click on' prosthetic arm allow can be controlled by thought. Read More
A newly developed sensor for prosthetic arms can detect spinal motor neuron signals, a new study reports. Read More
Researchers have developed a new method that utilizes both machine learning and augmented reality to help treat those with chronic phantom limb pain following amputation. Read More
Researchers believe that if they can unlock the genetic network that allows acorn worms to regenerate body parts, they may be able to regenerate human limbs. Read More
A new prosthetic system allows amputees to feel the same intensity of pressure on their prosthetic hand as they can feel with their natural hand. Read More
According to researchers, a reorganization of wiring in the brain could be an underlying cause of phantom limb pain experienced by amputees. Read More
Researchers have found a way to produce realistic sensations of touch in two human amputees by directly stimulating the nervous system. Read More
