Musk does not slow down. Will implant cerebral chips in the next country
Neuralink brain chips are in the second phase of clinical trials in the United States. However, it turns out that not only Americans will be able to try the controversial technology.
Chips have been tested only in the US so far. Neuralink Corporation, dealing with neurotechnology, whose co -founder is the most cheerful man in the world, conducts clinical trials, among others at the Miller School of Medicine at the University of Miami. The Government Food and Drug Agency had to give permission to Musk, which was obtained in 2024.
Now the time has come for Health Canada – a government department that is responsible for national health policy.
Recruitment was opened. Neuralink chip clinical trials will start in Canada
Chips will be tested in a map of maple leaf – said on platform X the main researcher at Neuralink – Dan Adams. Neuralink may start recruiting for the first clinical trial in Canada. Experts believe that the new technology, considered by many to be “breakthrough”, will help in the treatment of numerous neurological diseases.
It will be the first to benefit from people suffering from tetraplegia (four -limb paralysis). Chips may enable them to use various electrical devices with the help of thoughts.
In the past, during a live broadcast, it was shown how certain paralyzed 29-year-old moves the mouse cursor from the computer on the monitor screen, which was happening thanks to Neuralink (the device read the activity of neurons in his brain). The young man was even able to play chess on the computer.
“Like Fitbit in your skull”
Recently, through social media, Musk revealed that the next implant was supposedly implanted on the third patient. However, he did not provide any details of the case.
How does Neuralink chip work? An implant with over three thousand electrodes connected to elastic threads of one tenth hair is implanted into the patient’s brain. It can monitor the activity of a thousand neurons. – It’s like Fitbit (it’s about devices for measuring steps – ed.) In your skull, with small wires. (…) I could now have a neuralink (in my head – ed.) And you wouldn’t know about it. Maybe I have it – a businessman joked, quoted by the British Sky News television station.
