Southfield Michigan (April 3-2013)— “Mind over Matter: Empowering the Paralyzed through Brain-Computer Interfaces” is the topic for the 2013 Walker L. Cisler Lecture, which will be delivered by Brown University neurologist and engineer Leigh Hochberg at 7:30 p.m. on April 3/2013 Wednesday at Lawrence Technological University, 21000 W. 10 Mile Road.
The free public event will be held in the Mary E. Marburger Science and Engineering Auditorium in the Science Building. A dessert reception will follow.
Activities like sending emails, playing computer games, and drinking coffee have been impossible for people who are “locked in” their bodies – awake and alert, but unable to move or communicate due to brainstem injuries, strokes, or illnesses like ALS. Until now.
Hochberg is co-director of BrainGate at Brown University. He and his fellow researchers are developing brain-machine interfaces that allow paralyzed people to accomplish these feats and much more.
