Using Implants to Learn about the Brain and How to Heal It
From: Medical Design Technology - 12/02/2014

Jeff Ashe and his team at GE Global Research in upstate New York are working
with scientists, engineers, and physicians at Brown University to better
understand the electrical signals generated by the brain’s neurons. The
research could one day yield miniscule implants that could help patients
regain lost body functions caused by traumatic brain injury, spinal cord
injury, and disease.

The team will develop sensors that will allow scientists to record more
neurons from more parts of the brain than ever before. They strive to develop
a more complete understanding of how the brain communicates and, ultimately,
devise improved ways to correct lost function.
