We currently have active studies in:
🇨🇦 Canada
🇬🇧 United Kingdom
🇺🇸 United States
🇦🇪 United Arab Emirates

If you're interested in participating in a current or future study, we invite you to join our global patient registry: neuralink.com/trials

Moments after implantation, our device can provide visibility into real-time neural activity. This video shows the gradual increase in activity as one of our recent participants wakes up post-procedure 🌅🧠

There are now 12 people around the world with Neuralink implants. Collectively, they’ve had their devices for 2,000 days and accumulated over 15,000 hours of use.

We look forward to continuing to explore the possibilities of neural interfaces with all of our participants!

Neuralink does some crazy engineering on its way to performing brain surgeries. We wanted to document one of the more striking examples - This Is How Neuralink Builds A Human Head

Elon Musk's Secret Side Quest for Neuralink: Understanding Consciousness

NEURALINK: On November 6th, at 8 p.m. ET, the ALS Network will host a free educational webinar titled "Neuralink and ALS - Building Neural Interfaces to Restore Autonomy."

There will be an amazing team speaking during the event, It includes Neuralink's Clinical Trials Lead, Romina Nejad, who will overview the BCI tech and ongoing trials. Followed by firsthand accounts from ALS participants Brad Smith, Jake Schneider (u/PairedWith_P7), and Nick Wray (u/Telepath_8), detailing their trial experiences and the device's daily impact.

Participation is via YouTube Live.

Mark your calendars!

🇬🇧 We’re excited to announce our first participant in the UK!

Paul, who is paralyzed due to motor neuron disease, received his Neuralink implant at uclh earlier this month and was able to control a computer with his thoughts just hours after surgery.

He’s now working with our engineers to explore using the implant to play his favorite video games like Dawn of War and perform other tasks that could enrich and restore autonomy in his daily life.

This marks an important step toward making our technology available to help people around the world.

Alex Conley, who has a spinal cord injury, was the 2nd patient to undergo neurosurgery at Barrow to receive Neuralink's N1 Implant as part of the PRIME Study. Now, also enrolled in CONVOY, Alex is the 1st to use the brain-computer interface (BCI) device to control a robotic arm.

As the first person to use a Neuralink device to control a robotic arm with his thoughts, Alex has been paving the way for building brain-computer interfaces that restore autonomy in both the digital and physical worlds 🦾

Made possible by Neuralink!

🗣 Alex Conley:

I used the Neuralink to write code for an Arduino to allow me to control an RC airplane with a quad stick. The possibilities are truly endless. Thank you Elon and the entire team at Neuralink. I am honored to be part of such a great program.
