Implant to help type 1 diabetics

Implant 1

Picture MUST credit: MIT
An implantable device that could save diabetes patients from dangerously low blood sugar levels has been developed by researchers,
The new implant carries a reservoir of glucagon, the hormone produced by the pancreas that plays a crucial role in regulating blood sugar levels.
The device can be stored under the skin and deployed during an emergency with no injections needed.
For people with Type 1 diabetes, developing hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar, is an ever-present threat.
When glucose levels become extremely low, it creates a life-threatening situation for which the standard treatment of care is injecting glucagon.
As an emergency backup, for cases where patients may not realise that their blood sugar is dropping to dangerous levels, MIT engineers have designed the implantable reservoir .
It can remain under the skin and be triggered to release glucagon when blood sugar levels get too low.
This approach could also help in cases where glucose levels drop too low during sleep, or for diabetic children unable to administer injections on their own.
The US researchers showed that this device could also be used to deliver emergency doses of epinephrine, a drug that is used to treat heart attacks and can also prevent severe allergic reactions, including anaphylactic shock.
OPS: The researchers showed that this device could also be used to deliver emergency doses of epinephrine, a drug that is used to treat heart attacks and can also prevent severe allergic reactions, including anaphylactic shock.

Minimally invasive brain implant gets regulatory clearance

Pictures must credit: Precision Neuroscience
A brain-computer interface thin enough to slip under the skull has become the first of its kind to win extended government approval in the USA.
Precision Neuroscience has created a wireless implant for restoring independence to millions of severely paralysed people. that can be left in place for up to 30 days.
The Layer 7 Cortical Interface translates brain signals into commands to control external devices like computers or robotic limbs.
This allows people with motor or communication impairments, such as those with paralysis or neuro-genetic disease ALS, to regain some level of functionality and independence.
It was set up by three former employees of Tesla billionaire Elon Musk’s rival Neuralink implant.
The implant resembles a thin sheet of flexible film and is designed to rest on the surface of the brain.
Unlike more invasive options that require deeper implants, Layer 7 records and stimulates neural activity using1,024 tiny electrodes.
The goal is to gather high-fidelity brain data in a way that’s less traumatic and more adaptable to a wide range of patients.
Its wafer-thin structure can be inserted through an incision narrower than a millimetre and removed without causing lasting damage.

This allows people with motor or communication impairments, such as those with paralysis or neuro-genetic disease ALS, to regain some level of functionality and independence.
It was set up by three former employees of Tesla billionaire Elon Musk’s rival Neuralink implant.
The implant resembles a thin sheet of flexible film and is designed to rest on the surface of the brain.
Unlike more invasive options that require deeper implants, Layer 7 records and stimulates neural activity using1,024 tiny electrodes.
The goal is to gather high-fidelity brain data in a way that’s less traumatic and more adaptable to a wide range of patients.
Its wafer-thin structure can be inserted through an incision narrower than a millimetre and removed without causing lasting damage.

Researchers at UC San Francisco have enabled a man who is paralysed to control a robotic arm through a device that relays signals from his brain to a computer.
He was able to grasp, move and drop objects just by imagining himself performing the actions.
The device, known as a brain-computer interface, worked for a record seven months without needing to be adjusted.
Until now, such devices have only worked for a day or two.
The brain implant relies on artificial intelligence that can adjust to the small changes that take place in the brain as a person repeats a movement and learns to do it in a more refined way.
Researchers at the University of California San Francisco said the key was the discovery of how activity shifts in the brain day to day as a study participant repeatedly imagined making specific movements.
Once the AI was programmed to account for those shifts, it worked for months at a time.
