- **Event Name**: Implantable Brain-Computer Interfaces: Toward Restoration of Communication and Mobility
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 23 Feb, 2026 at 06:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Dr. Leigh Hochberg, neuroscientist and director of the BrainGate Consortium, will visit Wofford to give a talk about implantable brain-computer interfaces. Implantable brain-computer interfaces are poised to revolutionize the ability to restore neurologic function lost to motor neuron disease, stroke or spinal cord injury. Clinical trials of the investigational BrainGate system have demonstrated that people with tetraplegia can control a computer cursor, a tablet computer, robotic limbs and other devices quickly and intuitively, simply by thinking about the movement of their own hand. Hochberg will explore how these developing technologies are changing the lives of those affected by neurologic disease.
