The energy technology company Neuralink, headed by the well-known entrepreneur Elon Musk, has received permission to conduct clinical trials for inserting a chip into the human brain, "Adyrna" correspondent reported.
"We are pleased to announce that we have received FDA (Food and Drug Administration) approval to begin our first human clinical trial. - said the company on Twitter.
Let us remind you that last year Neuralink said that they will start the tests of implanting a chip in the human brain in 2023. The company said the operation will take about an hour. A special robot's head is used to make a hole in the skull and implant the chip.
Neuralink, a startup developing brain chips, was founded by Elon Musk in 2017.
"This invention allows people with disabilities to interact with others and restore movement activity of their limbs," says the businessman.
