Elon Musk's Neuralink has announced plans to expand its human trials to several countries, including the UK, Canada, New Zealand, and the UAE, in 2025. Neuralink, which develops brain-computer interface (BCI) technology, has already implanted devices in three patients. The company aims to address conditions such as paralysis, ALS, and blindness, with Musk stating that the technology could potentially enable paralyzed individuals to walk again by bypassing spinal cord damage. Human trials are currently underway in the US, UK, and Canada, with applications open for participants.
