Did you know that your brain keeps sending signals to move your limbs even when your paralyzed?Mo Nipshagen is a PhD candidate at the Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour in Nijmegen. Together with their colleagues, they develop Brain-Computer-Interfaces to enable locked-in and paralyzed patients to interact with the world around them.Listen to this episode if you want to learn more about the future of paralysis treatment and how computers can interact with the human brain.Resources:Berezutskaya, J., Saive, AL., Jerbi, K., Gerven, M.v.
