BrainGate is developing and testing practical, groundbreaking medical devices to restore communication, mobility and independence to people affected by neurologic disease, paralysis, or limb loss. See what we're all about.

BrainGate is a brain implant system, currently under development and in clinical trials, designed to help those who have lost control of their limbs, or other bodily functions, such as patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) or spinal cord injury.

The BrainGate system uses a brain-implantable sensor to detect neural signals that are then decoded to provide control signals for assistive technologies. In 2004, Cyberkinetics received from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) the first of two Investigational Device Exemptions (IDEs) to perform this research.

BrainGate, Inc. is a company with transformative neurotechnology that uses micro-electrodes implanted in the brain to let humans operate external devices such as computers or robotic arms with just their thought.

Our research team includes leading neurologists, neuroscientists, clinicians, engineers, computer scientists, neurosurgeons, mathematicians, and other researchers – all focused on developing technologies to restore the communication, mobility, and independence of people with neurologic disease, injury, or limb loss.

The BrainGate research program is focused on developing brain-computer interface (BCI) technologies to restore the communication, mobility, and independence of people with neurologic disease, injury, or limb loss.

2023年1月13日 · In an important step toward a medical technology that could help restore independence of people with paralysis, researchers find the investigational BrainGate neural interface system has low rates of associated adverse events.

2020年8月7日 · BrainGate is a technology that is developed to define the connection between the human brain and the computer. It is a brain implant system that helps people who have lost control of their limbs or their functions in accidents or due to disease. It is a neurotransmitter prosthetic device.

2021年4月1日 · The BrainGate brain-machine interface is able to transmit signals from a single neuron resolution with full broadband fidelity without physically tethering the user to a decoding system.

The BrainGate technology is relevant across many platforms but the core areas of focus have been three-fold: Communication; Epilepsy; Prosthetics; The BrainGate technology may also provide greater insight into motor function and sensory feedback between the brain and other parts of the body.
