Neurobridge is an electronic neural bypass for spinal cord injuries
that reconnects the brain directly to muscles, allowing voluntary and
functional control of a paralyzed limb.
"It's much like a heart bypass, but instead of bypassing blood, we're actually bypassing electrical signals," said Chad Bouton, research leader at Battelle. "We're taking those signals from the brain, going around the injury, and actually going directly to the muscles."
