A newly developed neural implant can help restore limb function to those suffering from paralysis and other movement disorders. The device improves the connections between the brain and the paralyzed limbs.
Researchers have developed a technique to make brain controlled prosthetics more precise. A pilot clinical trial of the neuroprosthesis is underway for people with paralysis and ALS.
A new surgical procedure that moves healthy nerves to an inactive nerve helps quadriplegic patients regain the use of their arms and hands.
Researchers use direct brain control to allow a man paralyzed for five years to walk again.
An experimental treatment can generate immune cells that migrate to the brain and prevent attacks against myelin, allowing mice the ability to regain walking skills.
Researchers report amputees are able to control a robotic arm with help of brain implants and BMI technology. The study details how brain areas that control both the intact arm and amputated limb can create new connections and learn to control the robotic arm, even years following the loss of a limb.
A newly developed artificial neural connection device allows new cortical sites, previously not associated with limb movements, to swiftly regain the control of a paralyzed hand.
A new study reveals reverting neurons to an early growth state can help reconnect severed spinal cord nerves in rodent models of SCI.
A new drug could partially relieve paralyzing spinal cord injuries, researchers report.
New advances in brain computer interface technology allows three people with movement impairments to control a cursor by imagining their hand movements.
Using a brain computer interface, researchers help a paralyzed man regain a sensation of touch via a robotic arm.
Researchers report a paralyzed man has been able to regain functional control of his hand with the help of a brain implant that works with new software.
