[Brown University] \u2014 More than two decades ago, a team of Brown University researchers set out with an ambitious goal to provide people with paralysis a revolutionary neurotechnology capable of turning thoughts about movement into actual action, using a tiny device that would one day be implanted in the surface of the brain. Their work led to an ongoing, multi-institution effort to create the BrainGate brain-computer interface, designed to allow clinical trial participants with paralysis to control assistive devices like computers or robotic limbs just by thinking about the action they want to initiate.<\/p>\n<p>Open Access Paper:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/n.neurology.org\/content\/early\/2023\/01\/13\/WNL\">https:\/\/n.neurology.org\/content\/early\/2023\/01\/13\/WNL<\/a>.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>In an important step toward a medical technology that could help restore independence of people with paralysis, researchers find the investigational BrainGate neural interface system has low rates of associated adverse events.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PROVIDENCE, R.I.
