A Brain Chip to Control Paralyzed Limbs

As we know, the spinal cord injuries and some types of stroke and neurodegenerative disease, the neuron network between our brain and our limbs or body are damaged. That is the main cause of not being able to control or move our limbs as well as our body. Scientists have tried to make some remarkable progress to solve those problems. One of the solutions, my group and i have already given in the device project. Now, i read another interesting solution. The scientists are now building a device that can records our brain signals and then transmits them to the paralyzed muscles potentially returning muscle control to severely paralyzed patients. That device is called the brain chip. I hope this article can give you all some ideas about how progressive our biotechnology is.
