Brain-Computer Interface Helps Paralyzed Patients Achieve Functional Recovery

A joint study led by Xuanwu Hospital and domestic brain science institutions achieved a breakthrough in treating late-stage severe spinal cord injury using a combination of brain-computer interface, spinal cord electrical stimulation, and exoskeleton. The first patient implanted with the 'Beinao No.1' invasive BCI system showed neurological improvement from complete to incomplete spinal cord injury after one year.
