This article, underneath the category of reverse-engineering the brain, describes a project which imbedded a microchip inside the brain of a partially paralyzed man. Then, using a system of electrodes outside of his arm, researchers were able to "rewire" signals from the microchip through the electrodes, bypassing the damaged spinal cord. This allowed the man to regain hand and wrist movements. | This article, underneath the category of reverse-engineering the brain, describes a project which imbedded a microchip inside the brain of a partially paralyzed man.

About Me- I am in the class of 2026 at Duke and planning on majoring in Mechanical Engineering. I am from Raleigh. In my free time I enjoy running, baking, painting, and hiking. Right now I am taking EGR 103, EGR 101, EGR Energy Materials and Technology, and Chemistry 101.
Grand Challenges- This article, underneath the category of reverse-engineering the brain, describes a project which imbedded a microchip inside the brain of a partially paralyzed man. Then, using a system of electrodes outside of his arm, researchers were able to "rewire" signals from the microchip through the electrodes, bypassing the damaged spinal cord. This allowed the man to regain hand and wrist movements.
