Breakthrough Brain-Spine Interface Helps Paralyzed People Walk Again

A groundbreaking brain-spine interface (BSI) surgery performed in China has restored movement to a paralyzed patient within just 24 hours. Conducted at Shanghai’s Zhongshan Hospital, the procedure was the first of its kind to enable a person with total paraplegia to stand and walk again using this innovative technology.

Developed by researchers at Zhongshan Hospital and Fudan University, the BSI technology creates a “neural bridge” between the brain and spinal cord. This minimally invasive procedure involves implanting electrode chips in the brain’s motor cortex, which decode movement intentions in real-time and send targeted electrical stimulation to the spinal nerves.

The patient’s rapid recovery highlights the effectiveness of this pioneering approach. Previous trials showed that individuals with severe spinal cord injuries regained leg control within two weeks, and the success of multiple surgeries proves the technology is both scalable and replicable.

Lead researchers say this is only the beginning, with ongoing advancements aiming to restore mobility to more patients with spinal injuries. Their work represents a life-changing breakthrough, offering renewed hope to millions worldwide.
