brain The first successful operation and trial of a brain slice implant. The Neuralink company, which specializes in neurosciences and affiliated with billionaire Elon Musk, has unveiled the first experience of implanting a brain chip
. The experiment was conducted on a pig where the company implanted a computer chip in his brain the size of a coin two months ago. This unique experiment in science may be a step aimed at treating neurological diseases that afflict humans, by implanting this chip in the brain, according to Reuters. Brain slice implantation Neuralink seeks to perform this operation by implanting wireless connections between the brain and the computer that include thousands of electrodes in the brain, where the most complex human organ is, with the aim of treating some neurological diseases, specifically neurological conditions such as Alzheimer's disease, spinal cord injuries and dementia. The first successful trial of a brain slice implant During an interview with Musk, he explained, "A device the size of a coin can solve many other problems such as depression, insomnia and memory loss
." During a presentation by Musk for Neuralink for 2019, he explained that the company is seeking regulatory approval through which the company can conduct a "brain chip" implantation experiment on human trials by the end of 2020. Brain slice A successful trial of a brain slice transplant The device is implanted in the skull and is connected by very small wires. The diameter of the Neuralink device is approximately eight millimeters or smaller than the tip of a finger. The process of implanting the chip in the brain is done with the help of an advanced robot, where in the areas responsible for movement and sensation functions in the brain, flexible strings or thinner wires are implanted from human hair, during this process the recipient is under local anesthesia only
. Musk added that this device can be removed at any time a person wants. This was not the first experience in the field of treating neurological diseases, as many previous scientific experiments were conducted in this regard for scientists from different parts of the world, but the difference here is that these previous experiments were not successful or the experiment was not continued until it reached the world and could actually solve the problems
. Nervousness and other problems that a person suffers from in general. But with regard to this experiment and the process of implanting a chip in the brain, we are today talking about a global event and a scientific experiment that is crowned with success, so it is considered the unique experience and the experiment that gave the world hope to fight diseases that the world has been unable to reach for a solution for a period of time. Note: All experiments conducted in the field of brain implantation were conducted on animals only and had not been tried on a human element
