Watch CNBC's feature on portfolio company Paradromics Inc. about the company's efforts to implant its first brain computer interface, as the race to be the leader in the brain-computer interface space heats up. #BreakthroughScience #Neuroscience #ElonMusk #DeepTech
Neurotech startup Paradromics Inc. will be putting its brain implant on trial next year, as the race to be the leader in the nascent brain-computer interface space heats up. “The brain is a super fascinating organ. We have about 85 billion neurons and every neuron is a million times slower than a computer chip. And yet, the brain does incredible things,” said Matt Angle, CEO and founder of Paradromics, in an interview with “CNBC Tech: The Edge.” “What that means is that if you want to get data in and out of the brain, you have to be able to talk to a ton of different neurons simultaneously. And that’s where the emphasis on building these high-speed, high-data-rate devices came from,” he added. The trial would follow competitor Neuralink’s move to implant a chip into a patient’s brain in March. The company, which was cofounded by Elon Musk, later disclosed that part of its brain implant malfunctioned in the weeks following the procedure. ➡️ Read more: https://cnb.cx/3KSgaZ5
