Researchers at the German Primate Center -- Leibniz Institute for Primate Research in Göttingen developed a novel training protocol for brain-computer interfaces in a study with rhesus monkeys.

The method enables precise control of prosthetic hands using signals from the brain alone.

The results are essential for improving the fine control of neural hand prostheses, which could give paralyzed patients back some or all of their mobility.
