The dura is the brain's armor: a membrane so tough that a surgeon normally cuts through it with a scalpel. For the first time in our clinical trials, we inserted the electrode threads of our implant straight through the dura and into the cortex, keeping the dura intact. Here's

We like to say “the best step is no step” and deleting the durectomy takes one of the most delicate manual steps out of the procedure. This potentially means a safer, more repeatable surgery, and a real path to scaling Neuralink to the many people who could benefit.

This first-of-its-kind procedure was performed at @UHN Toronto Western Hospital as part of our clinical trials. The participant was controlling a cursor with their thoughts within an hour of surgery, and recovery is progressing as expected. Neuralink devices are investigational

Our goal at Neuralink is to restore abilities that were thought to be lost forever due to injury, accident, or disease. See how Audrey, who is paralyzed due to spinal cord injury, uses her brain-computer interface to play video games with her mind.

After a car accident left her paralyzed from the neck down, Audrey didn’t think she would be able to draw or paint again. 20 years later, she became the first female participant in our clinical trials. Now, she uses her brain-computer interface to create art with her mind.

The needle grasps and inserts each electrode thread of our implant into the brain. We've built the technology to produce these needles in-house, using lasers to mill features invisible to the naked eye.

We're building a surgical robot capable of reaching any brain region. The goal: a generalized neural interface to help solve any condition that originates in the brain.

Our robot is designed to insert hundreds of ultra-fine, flexible threads with thousands of electrodes within microns of targeted neurons while avoiding vasculature and adapting to real-time brain motion.

We’ve built a surgical robot to automate key steps in the process of receiving a Neuralink implant to promote safety, reliability, and scalability. Learn more about the role of the robot and its future potential from the engineers helping develop it.

We are working to restore mobility that was lost due to disease or spinal cord injury by allowing participants to control robotic arms with their thoughts. See how this is possible.
