It's an unusual path, but promising therapy for paralyzed patients may come from the work of monkeys.
Researchers at Duke University conducted a study in which monkeys learned to control the movement of virtual arms by using just their brains. These findings could prove particularly useful for people who have sensory and motor deficiencies caused by spinal cord injuries or for those who are severely paralyzed.
I found this one difficult to comment on personally because the article isnt greatly informative. Thanks for the heads up DJ because at least we are informed of developments but i was keen to learn a little more about it.
Maybe more information will be circulated in time.
Lαrα, this is something different to the usual spinal cord injury research that's currently out there so hopefully there'll be more detailed information in the future
