  1. 💊New approach to treating spinal cord injuries developed
    A team led by Prof. Dr. Dietmar Fischer at the University Hospital Cologne demonstrated in mouse models that the engineered protein hIL‑6 induces new neuronal connections in the injured spinal cord, partially restoring lost motor function.

    ⚠️ More research on safety, optimal dosing, and side effects is required before human application.

  13. Germany builds brain-computer implant that lets paralyzed patients walk again
    In Germany, neuroscientists at Charité University Hospital have successfully tested a brain-computer implant that restores mobility in patients with paralysis. The system bypasses damaged spinal connections by reading brain signals directly and transmitting them to implanted stimulators in the spinal cord.

    Unlike older systems requiring bulky external computers, this new implant is fully wireless, implanted beneath the skull, and powered inductively. It translates a patient’s intent to move into electrical pulses, which are then delivered to the spinal cord, reactivating dormant neural pathways.

    In initial clinical trials, patients who had lost movement due to spinal cord injury were able to stand, take steps, and even climb small stairs. This marks one of the first instances where brain-controlled walking is restored with natural fluidity, not just rigid robotic stepping.

    The technology combines machine learning with neurobiology — the implant learns the user’s neural patterns, becoming more accurate the longer it’s used. Over time, the system strengthens natural neural reconnections, meaning patients may eventually recover partial mobility even without the implant.

    This breakthrough represents hope for millions of spinal injury patients. While still experimental, it paves the way toward commercial devices that could be implanted within a decade.
    For the first time, paralyzed individuals are not just dreaming of walking again — they are doing it with their own brain signals.

  17. Feel like I’ve been run over by a bus. Currently back in bed trying to rest.

    Spinal cord injury is a right pain, but I try not to feel sorry for myself. There are people with bigger problems than mine.

    If only every day was predictable, this is probably the worst I felt for a month or so, normally the Gabapentin keeps a lid on things.

    Going to force myself out in the car to go and buy some farm cider, and enjoy the drive with the roof down.

  18. Living an active lifestyle has wide-ranging benefits, including better mental and physical health. The Kelly Brush Foundation is dedicated to inspiring and empowering people with spinal cord injuries to lead active and engaged lives. In this episode, you can learn more about how they are helping people with disabilities learn more about adaptive sports, discover local sport organizations and events, and connect with other disability community members.

  19. Mouth based touchpad enables users with paralysis to use computers… MouthPad allows users to control their computer, smartphone, or tablet through tongue and head movements. The MouthPad’s pressure-sensitive touch pad sits on the roof of the mouth, and, working with a pair of motion sensors, translates tongue and head gestures into cursor scrolling and clicks in real time via Bluetooth. #Disability #Technology #paralysis #Hardware #paralyzed #SpinalCordInjury

  27. Walking naturally after spinal cord injury using a brain–spine interface

    A spinal cord injury interrupts the communication between the brain and the region of the spinal cord that produces walking, leading to paralysis. Here, we restored this communication with a digital bridge between the brain and spinal cord that enabled an individual with chronic tetraplegia to stand and walk naturally in community settings.

  28. Wireless Brain-Spine Interface: A Leap Towards Reversing Paralysis

    Researchers have designed a wireless brain-spine interface enabling a paralyzed man to walk naturally again. The ‘digital bridge’ comprises two electronic implants — one on the brain and another on the spinal cord — that decode brain signals and stimulate the spinal cord to activate leg muscles.
    Remarkably, the patient experienced significant recovery in sensory perceptions and motor skills.

  30. I am so sick of seeing people try to defend Elon Musk's toxic behavior by pointing to his autism.

    Let me be clear as someone with cerebral palsy and ADHD: Autism/neurodivergence/disability is never an excuse for malicious actions. Plenty of people are autistic without being assholes.
