CLEVELAND, Ohio — Case Western Reserve University and the Louis Stokes Cleveland VA Medical Center have received a $9.9 million grant to test a new prosthetic hand that allows amputees to again have a ...

Researchers have developed a novel training protocol for brain-computer interfaces in a study with rhesus monkeys. The method enables precise control of prosthetic hands using signals from the brain ...

The world is edging closer to creating fully functional prosthetic limbs, with the first clinical bionic attachment connected directly to the nervous and skeletal systems, plus artificial intelligence ...

When people sit down for a meal, they don’t think about what to do with their hands when eating. It’s just second nature. Yet, their hands are constantly adapting posture and grip to the cutlery, food ...

When a person loses a leg above the knee, the nerves that once moved that leg don’t simply go quiet. They keep firing.

Phantom limb pain is a common problem for people who undergo amputation, and so is the ability to function even with a regular prosthetic, but a medical advance that sounds like it comes straight out ...

Thanks to a neural interface, people can move this bionic limb naturally—just by thinking about it. When someone loses part of a leg, a prosthetic can make it easier to get around. But most ...

A mind-controlled prosthetic feels more like a part of the wearer’s body and promises to make walking easier. When someone loses part of a leg, a prosthetic can make it easier to get around. But most ...

India, March 18 -- A new study published in Science describes a tissue-integrated bionic knee that directly connects ...

In a study with rhesus monkeys, neuroscientists at the German Primates Center have investigated how the functionality of brain-computer interfaces and thus also the fine motor skills of ...
