Musk Says First Human Patient Has Received Brain Implant
30-01-2024, 12:33 PM
Elon Musk said that the first human patient has received a brain implant from his startup Neuralink Corp.In a post on X, formerly Twitter, Musk said that the patient is recovering.
Neuralink’s brain implant aims to help people with traumatic injuries operate computers using only their thoughts. In May, the company said it had received approval from the US Food and Drug Administration to conduct its first human trials. And late last year Neuralink said it was recruiting patients with quadriplegia due to cervical spinal cord injury or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) for the trial.
Musk’s startup has already conducted extensive tests on animals. Those experiments have raised alarms with some animal rights groups for the company’s work with primates.
