The first "double nerve bypass" operation was a complete success, which can restore the sensation and movement of quadriplegic patients.

CTOnews.com, August 3 (Xinhua) in the first clinical trial, bioelectronics researchers, engineers and surgeons at the Feinstein Institute of Medicine, a subsidiary of Northwell Health, reconnected the brain to the spinal cord by implanting a microchip into the brain of a paralyzed man and matching the corresponding AI algorithm.

The researchers performed a 15-hour craniotomy at North Bank University Hospital (NSUH) on March 9 this year, and the participants made a breakthrough four months later.

The operation builds an electronic bridge over the subject's brain to allow information to flow again between the paralyzed body and brain, allowing tetraplegic patients to regain body sensation and control the movement of the hands and legs.
