Precision Neuroscience™ Appoints John Donoghue, Pioneer of Brain–Computer Interfaces, as Scientific Advisor
Summary
Precision Neuroscience appointed John Donoghue, Ph.D., pioneer of the BrainGate BCI project and the first proof that a paralyzed person could control devices with thought, as Scientific Advisor. He will advise on device design, signal decoding, and clinical strategy for the Layer 7 cortical interface. The appointment advances the company’s high-bandwidth, surface-recording BCI toward long-term implant studies and commercial use for ALS, spinal cord injury, and stroke patients.
Why it matters
John Donoghue, the scientist behind the original BrainGate demonstration that a paralyzed person could control devices with thought, joining as advisor lends Precision Neuroscience significant scientific credibility as it advances toward long-term implant studies.
