"Biohybrid Neural Implant Offers Hope for Paralyzed Limbs"

Researchers from the University of Cambridge have developed a neural implant that combines flexible electronics and human stem cells to improve the connection between the brain and paralyzed limbs. The device prevents scar tissue formation and improves functionality and sensitivity. While the device has only been tested on rats, it shows promise for amputees or those who have lost function of a limb or limbs. The researchers are now working to optimize the devices and improve their scalability.
