Elon Musk on Tuesday said his Neuralink startup had installed a brain implant in its first human patient with "promising" initial results.The neurotechnology company co-founded by Musk in 2016 aims to build direct communication channels between the brain and computers.The ambition is to supercharge human capabilities, treat neurological disorders like ALS or Parkinson's, and maybe one day achieve a symbiotic …
Brain implants have long been trapped in the realm of science fiction, but a steady trickle of medical trials suggests the tiny devices could play a big part in humanity's future. Tech titan Elon Musk has refocused some energy on his Neuralink firm after it received permission in May to test its implants on humans, helping it to raise $280 …
Neuralink, Elon Musk's brain-implant company, has won US approval to test on humans. Neuralink is a neurotechnology company co-founded by Musk along with a team of scientists and engineers in 2016 to build direct communication channels between the brain and computers. The aim is to supercharge human capabilities, treat neurological disorders like ALS or Parkinson's, and ultimately achieve a symbiotic …
On Wednesday, December 14 at 19:30 GMT: For decades, scientists have been developing brain-computer interfaces – technology that allows humans to control computers via the power of thought alone. Researchers have found some success in using BCI technology with brain implants that help people with mobility disorders control prosthetic limbs. Now private companies like Elon Musk’s Neuralink are growing their …
