It talks about how some researchers made a paralyzed monkey walk again by installin some electrodes on his brain cortex and sending the signal from a single neuron, sending it to a little computer and then to her legs. I am glad there is hope for people who are disabled. I am also thinking this could perhaps lead to understand neuropathic pain better.
