Elon Musk’s Neuralink Secures Canadian Approval For Human Brain Chip Trial

Elon Musk’s Neuralink announced on Wednesday that it has obtained approval to conduct its first clinical trial in Canada. The trial will focus on a device designed to enable paralysed individuals to control digital devices through thought alone.

The study will evaluate the safety and initial functionality of Neuralink’s implant, which aims to assist individuals with quadriplegia—paralysis of all four limbs—in using external devices via thought control.
