The company is preparing to launch a clinical study<\/strong> in the UK<\/strong> and has announced that it will work with University College London Hospitals Trust<\/strong> and Newcastle Hospitals<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neuralink<\/a><\/em><\/strong> is seeking volunteers who are paralyzed due to conditions such as motor neuron disease<\/strong> or spinal cord injury<\/strong> to have chips<\/strong> implanted in their brains<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These chips<\/strong> are surgically embedded into people’s heads, allowing the brain<\/strong> to communicate with a computer. According to the company, five severely paralyzed individuals are already using this system to control devices with their thoughts. Neuralink<\/a><\/em><\/strong> allows people to apply to be considered for clinical trials<\/strong> through a website called “Patient Registry.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neuralink<\/strong> was founded in 2016 by Elon Musk<\/strong> and a group of engineers and scientists. Since then, it has developed a brain-computer interface<\/strong> that has been used in some trials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Initial human trials<\/strong> have focused solely on paralyzed individuals. However, Elon Musk<\/strong> suggests that this chip<\/strong> could be used for more general purposes in the future, enabling direct information transfer between humans and computers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company has faced criticism regarding its practices involving monkeys and other animals used in some early experiments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neuralink<\/strong> aims to expand its early trials internationally, conducting studies in Canada as well as the UK<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
