Neuralink's founder, Elon Musk, has grand plans for the company's brain implant, which he says could be implanted in thousands of patients in the next decade. Richard Bord/Getty Images
Founded in 2016 by Musk and a group of engineers, Neuralink is building a brain chip interface that can be implanted within the skull, which it says could eventually help disabled patients to move ...
An animal testing laboratory at Elon Musk's Neuralink brain technology company was found to have "objectionable conditions or practices" by the Food and Drug Administration, which cited the ...
On May 29, 2024, Musk issued a request for public input on a challenge facing Neuralink. He suggested that due to the size of the data in need of transmission, a compression rate of more than 200x was needed for proper function. The challenge also specified that compression needed to be lossless, work under low power, and compress data in real ...
In January, Neuralink implanted the device in the brain of its first patient, Noland Arbaugh, who is paralyzed from the shoulders down due to a 2016 diving accident.
Researchers are also exploring a range of delivery systems, such as using veins, to deliver these implants without brain surgery; by leaving the skull sealed shut, patients could receive their neural implants without running as great a risk of seizures, strokes, or permanent neural impairments, all of which can be caused by open-brain surgery.

The threads have stabilized for Arbaugh, Neuralink said. Reuters had reported Neuralink was aware of this issue from its animal trials. Musk's Neuralink says second trial implant went well, no ...
