Neural prosthesis restores decision-making ability in monkeys | Longevity science | Scoop.it
A neural prosthesis has been shown to restore the decision-making ability in monkeys.

 

The prosthetic device was developed by researchers from Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center, the University of Kentucky and the University of Southern California. It incorporates an array of electrodes, which is capable of both measuring the electrical impulses made by individual neurons, and of stimulating those neurons.
