NEURALINK: CJ suffered a spinal cord injury and is ventilator-dependent. A few months ago, he was selected for the Neuralink PRIME Study at The Miami Project to Cure Paralysis. He recently underwent N1 implant surgery. at the University of Miami's Miller School of Medicine, with Neuralink co-investigator Dr. Michael E. Ivan, UoM Associate Professor of at the Miller School of Medicine Neurological Surgery and The Miami Project to Cure Paralysis. Per CJ, "In addition to being a stellar neurosurgeon, Dr. Ivan is really quite hilarious. Totally put me at ease even knowing that I was about to get a hole put in my head and wake up a cyborg!" Right after surgery in the hospital, Neuralink Software Engineer Natalie Cygan stopped by his room, set up the Neuralink laptop, showed the brain waves, and gave his wife her personal cell number for future questions. Per CJ, "Shortly after my surgery, a Neuralink engineer stopped by my hospital room to show my wife my brain waves. For the purpose of future arguments, Sweetie, this proves once and for all that I do have a brain..." A day or two later at home, Neuralink's Sehej Bindra visited to assist with the N1 implant setup and training. CJ reached 6.23 BPS on WebGrid according to Sehej and they celebrated the success. Sehej is the the brainchild behind SimpleCell, a platform to integrate and streamline the bioinformatics research. Per CJ, "Sehej is awesome. Came to my house three days straight to train me on my N1 and still meets with me virtually." At his 1-month post-op visit, Dr. Ivan confirmed the surgery healed and the N1 implant was in the right place. The CT scan above shows how the implant looks in his skull. CJ called the clinical trial very encouraging because participants recovered tremendous respiratory function and the work of weaning from the ventilator helps keep motor neurons alive. @SCI_Borg24, @michaelivanmd

Beyond honored to join this phenomenal group of co-interns for the journey ahead. 🌴☀️ I wouldn’t be here without the guidance of my mentor @DoctorZada, who first ignited my passion for neurosurgery ten years ago. Most importantly, my deepest gratitude belongs to the patients I’ve had the privilege of caring for during medical school. You are the reason behind every late night and every sacrifice, and I’m ready to pour my heart into this next chapter.

Collaboration is powerful. Whether it’s advancing research, raising funds, or advocating for a cause that matters, real impact happens when people come together. This week I had the opportunity to support @StacheStrong in their mission to raise funds for brain tumor research. Through their collaboration with @SylvesterCancer Comprehensive Cancer Center at the Dolphins Cancer Challenge @TackleCancer — and partnerships with industry leaders like @Medtronic — we’re helping bring greater awareness to glioblastoma and the urgent need for better treatments and ultimately a cure. Moments like this remind me how meaningful it is when organizations, researchers, advocates, and industry unite around a shared purpose. Together, we create the momentum needed to change lives. To support in this mission. Donate now: lnkd.in/g6C6Bv_M And Medtronic employees — remember you can double your impact through matching! 🙌 #StacheStrong #DolphinsCancerChallenge #BrainTumorResearch #GlioblastomaAwareness #Collaboration #CancerResearch #StrongerTogether

We sat down with @Telepath_8 and @neuralink to let off some steam and play Mario Kart! His secret advantage? He shoots red shells with his mind. @elonmusk, can we start a BCI gaming tournament?
