    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 thr…

    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,…

    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 i…

    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 invi…

    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…

    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 possibl…

    “When you haven’t heard someone talk for four years, the thought that they might be able to talk again was mind blowing."

    ALS has gradually taken away Kenneth’s ability to speak. Through Neuralink’s VOICE clinical trial, he’s exploring how a brain-computer interface designed to translate thought to s…
