☆ Here's what it's like inside the operating room when someone gets a brain implant
  + stars: | 2024-05-25 | by ( Ashley Capoot | In | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +11 min
Bederson, system chair for the Department of Neurosurgery at Mount Sinai Health System, is no stranger to long hours in an operating room. In fact, it marked the 14th time that the company has placed its array on a human patient's brain. Four of Precision's arrays were carefully laid out on a table nearby. Using a pair of yellow tweezers called long bayonet forceps, Bederson began placing all four of Precision's electrode arrays onto the patient's brain. Real-time renderings of the patient's brain activity swept across Precision's monitors in the operating room.

☆ Neuralink shares video of patient playing chess using signals from brain implant

Elon Musk's startup Neuralink streamed a live video on Wednesday that showed a patient using the company's brain implant to move a mouse and play chess on a computer. A BCI is a system that deciphers brain signals and translates them into commands for external technologies. Dr. Nader Pouratian, chair of the Department of Neurological Surgery at UT Southwestern Medical Center, said researchers have been developing and studying BCI technology for years. It is not clear how many patients are participating in Neuralink's trial, or what the trial is trying to demonstrate. There is reason to be hopeful about Neuralink's technology, said Dr. Marco Baptista, chief scientific officer of the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation, which provides resources to people who have become paralyzed.

☆ Elon Musk's Neuralink implants brain tech in human patient for the first time
  + stars: | 2024-01-29 | by ( Ashley Capoot | In | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
The company is developing a brain implant that aims to help patients with severe paralysis control external technologies using only neural signals. The in-human clinical trial marks just one step on Neuralink's path toward commercialization. Neuralink did not disclose how many human patients will participate in its initial in-human trial. Paradromics is aiming to launch its first trial with human patients in the first half of this year. Precision Neuroscience carried out its first in-human clinical study last year.

☆ Can you hack your brain? These companies are driving innovation in the field of brain stimulation
  + stars: | 2023-11-21 | by ( Pia Singh | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +12 min
These forms of deep brain stimulation require a surgical procedure during which electrodes — which generate electrical impulses to control any abnormal brain activity — are implanted into certain areas of the brain. With enough advancement in the field, doctors expect brain stimulation techniques for both severe disorders and health-and-wellness purposes will ultimately become noninvasive. Three major players There are only three companies with FDA-approved deep brain stimulation, or DBS, treatments: Medtronic , Abbott Laboratories and Boston Scientific . The spinal cord stimulation, or SCS, business is a hotbed of innovation right now, deep brain stimulation also is a key area." There is still plenty of doubt, however, about the efficacy of at-home brain stimulation devices, which offer a less direct approach to brain stimulation and don't always require FDA oversight.

☆ Neuralink competitor Precision Neuroscience conducts its first clinical study to map human brain signals

He was standing in a busy operating room in West Virginia, waiting for a surgeon to place Precision Neuroscience's neural implant system onto a conscious patient's brain for the first time. In seconds, a real-time, high-resolution rendering of the patient's brain activity washed over a screen. According to Precision, the system had provided the highest resolution picture of human thought ever recorded. The company's flagship BCI system, the Layer 7 Cortical Interface, is an electrode array resembling a piece of scotch tape. Since the technology worked as expected, future studies will explore further applications in clinical and behavioral contexts, Mermel said.

☆ Factbox: Neuralink, other brain-chip makers face long road to FDA approval
  + stars: | 2023-03-02 | by ( Marisa Taylor | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
March 2 (Reuters) - Neuralink, founded in 2016, has yet to receive FDA approval to test its brain chip in humans. It received U.S. approval for human testing in July 2021, five years after applying to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). NEUROPACENeuroPace (NPCE.O), founded in 1997, didn’t secure FDA approval for its brain implant to treat epilepsy until 2013. BLACKROCK NEUROTECHBlackrock Neurotech, established in 2008, has tested its brain implant in humans for almost two decades. The company had hoped to secure approval to commercialize the implant from the FDA by last year but is still working on it, according to the company.
☆ Precision Neuroscience, co-founded by Neuralink alum, is creating a brain implant thinner than a human hair
  + stars: | 2023-01-25 | by ( Ashley Capoot | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +5 min
Precision was co-founded by Benjamin Rapoport, who also co-founded Elon Musk's BCI company, Neuralink , and Michael Mager. But while Neuralink's BCI is designed to be implanted directly into the brain tissue, Precision relies on a surgical technique that is designed to be less invasive. A BCI is a system that deciphers brain signals and translates them into commands for external technologies, and several companies have successfully created devices with this capability. The device is called the Layer 7 Cortical Interface , and it's a brain implant that aims to help patients with paralysis operate digital devices using only neural signals. "I think that the brain is, in a lot of ways, the next frontier for modern medicine," he said.
