BrainGate2 is a study that explores if people with tetraplegia (paralysis of all four limbs) can control devices using their thoughts. Researchers are looking for ways to help those with paralysis, caused by conditions like spinal cord injury or muscular dystrophy, regain abilities like moving a computer cursor or using assistive tools. This study will test a special device called a Neural Interface System, which connects to the brain to help control these actions.
To join, you need to have a certain condition like spinal cord injury and live close to the study site. You cannot participate if you have severe vision problems or are on certain medications. The study will check if the device is safe and works well.
- Duration: Participants need to live within three hours of the study site.
- Eligibility: Specific medical conditions are required.
- Risks: There may be risks involved with using the device.
