Advanced bionic limbs mapped in the brain for the first time.

Neuroprosthesis research in amputee patients aims to develop new prostheses that move and feel like real limbs. controlled directly by patients using their brains to provide sensory feedback. Targeted muscle and sensory reinnervation (TMSR) does exactly this by rerouting motor and sensory nerves from the amputated limb towards intact muscles and skin regions, changing the way the brain processes motor control and somatosensory input, impetus … Continue reading Advanced bionic limbs mapped in the brain for the first time.
