from the start there’s always been a 3rd program in our pipeline, though it’s taken a backseat to the BCIs; an idea that’s highly complementary though distinct still have a long road ahead, but we‘re ready to go a bit faster now and are staffing up our Vessel program:

Today we announced Vessel, a project focused on rethinking perfusion from the ground up, extending how long life can be sustained, and expanding what’s possible in transplantation and critical care. Life-support technologies like ECMO can keep patients alive when the heart or…

Some patients who were once blind are reading again—thanks to @ScienceCorp_ and @maxhodak_. Their neural implants don’t just patch what’s broken; they rebuild communication inside the brain. This isn’t science fiction, but the future of restoration technology.

We have done kidney's for kidney transplants @eGenesisBio. Exciting to see @maxhodak_ working on restoring sight! Rewarding work.

Very excited that the clinical trial results for our PRIMA retinal prosthesis are published today in the New England Journal of Medicine! This is the first time that patients who are blind due to photoreceptor loss have been able to intuitively see again.
