ALS, or Lou Gehrig's disease, slowly robbed Casey of his speech. But our researchers have restored his ability to communicate – in his own voice.
Sergey Stavisky and David Brandman’s team developed a new brain-computer interface (BCI). Now, electrodes implanted in Casey’s brain allow him to “speak” through a computer with the sounds of his own voice. Casey’s family can now communicate with their husband and father, who can continue to work as a climate activist.
See how it works in our latest video.
