Elon Musk said Neuralink could potentially restore full body functionality by bridging damaged spinal cords through brain-computer interfaces. The company has already implanted devices in 12 patients and is also developing Blindsight, a vision-restoring brain chip.

The experimental implant was granted "breakthrough device" status by the US Food and Drug Administration on Tuesday. Elon Musk expressed gratitude on X, noting that the device "will enable even those who have lost both eyes and their optic nerve to see."

Neuralink successfully implanted a brain chip in its first human patient, Noland Armagh, in the US.

Earlier this month, Neuralink marked 100 successful days with Noland Arbaugh, the first human implanted with a brain chip.

Paraplegic Noland Arbaugh, 29, was seen in a video shared to X using just his mind to play online chess.

Neuralink is one of many groups working on linking the nervous system to computers, efforts aimed at helping treat brain disorders, overcoming brain injuries and other applications.

Neuralink last year received the US Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) approval for human trials and said in September it was looking for its first test subjects for the six-year initial trial.

The company announced that it has obtained approval from the independent institutional review board overseeing the process, as well as from the initial hospital site, allowing them to commence recruitment for their inaugural human clinical trial.

Neuralink will be testing its microchips to restore vision and mobility in patients and treat conditions like paralysis and others

Neuralink said in a tweet, "This is the result of incredible work by the Neuralink team in close collaboration with the FDA and represents an important first step that will one day allow our technology to help many people," it added.

Hyderabad: Back in April 2021, a macaque named Pager played a video game on a computer with its mind. This is not a scene out of a science-fiction movie, but was part of the demonstration of Neuralink, a ‘game-changing’ technology that can potentially enable quadriplegics to operate computers and smart mobile devices with their minds.

When the world’s richest person goes shopping, one would expect that all the things that are desired would find a place in the shopping cart. But it’s a delicious irony that the world appears to be conspiring against its richest person, Elon Musk, to prevent him from buying Twitter, the popular microblogging site. It only […]

The nonprofit Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) has accused Neuralink and UC Davis of nine violations of the federal Animal Welfare Act.

According to dailymail.co.uk, the firm is hiring a clinical trial director, which says the right candidate will "work closely with some of the most innovative doctors and top engineers, as well as working with Neuralink's first Clinical Trial participants".

Hodak co-founded the company with Musk in 2016. Headquartered in San Francisco, Neuralink's team of around 100 people is trying to develop an implementable computer-brain interface.

Pager, a nine-year-old macaque monkey, had a Neuralink chip implanted about six weeks before the video was shot.
