Did you see the recent news from Duke University researchers who taught
rhesus monkeys to move a robotic arm using only signals from their brains?
While I'm an animal lover and have to think hard about these sorts of

their research, which is a step forward in helping paralyzed people control
neuroprosthetic limbs. In addition to the development of brain-controlled
prosthetics, the data collected will help surgeons understand specific brain
regions and the impact of surgery.
