Paradromics, a competitor to Neuralink, announced it has successfully implanted its brain-computer interface in a human for the first time, marking a significant milestone. The procedure was performed at the University of Michigan. The implant, part of the Connexus Brain-Computer Interface system, was inserted and removed during epilepsy surgery. The company stated the procedure demonstrated the system's safe implantation and ability to record neural activity. Paradromics plans a clinical trial later this year, pending regulatory approval, to study the long-term safety and use of its technology. The company aims to help patients with motor impairments communicate through computers.
