We've worked so hard here @umiamimedicine @UMiamiHealth @BuonicontiFund @UMneurosurgery to support the development of the next generation of neurotech and BCI for patients. Very excited for this new journey with @neuralink. We live in a cool future!
Neuralink has selected @UMiamiHealth as the second site for the PRIME Study! If you have quadriplegia due to ALS or SCI, you may qualify. Visit our Patient Registry to learn more and apply. neuralink.com/patient-regist…
Neuralink has expanded to @UMiamiHealth! RJ, Neuralink's 5th trial participant is paralyzed from a spinal cord injury and got his Neuralink implanted two months ago.
The University of Miami/Miami Project to Cure Paralysis will be the next test-site for Neuralink's brain chip trial to return independence to quadriplegics. Three local candidates are sought spinalpedia.com/community/vide… #spinalcordinjuryresearch #neuralink
School's out for summer! Here's daddy-daughter time with one of our participants.

The Miami Project (@BuonicontiFund) and Department of Neurological Surgery at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine have implanted their first patient as part of the @Neuralink PRIME Study. The patient was featured in a recent update from Neuralink on X. Read more…
The Miami Project at @umiamimedicine have implanted their first patient as part of Neuralink’s PRIME Study. The patient was featured in a recent update from @neuralink. Read more about the patient and how to view the demonstration here. bit.ly/3ZSf7Ax #TheMiamiProject
Any people with ALS who are comfortable with technology should apply to the @neuralink trial! They are doing surgery in Phoenix, Miami and Abu Dhabi. You can do 2 options: Speech Restoration - the implant will be in the speech motor cortex to track attempts to talk. Computer…
We’re all in with you!
i notice some interview candidates at @neuralink roll their eyes at the massive scale we’re pursuing. when i started at @SpaceX in 2016, our goal was to enable a launch every other day. this was insane to me. we had completed less than 30 successful launches in 14 years, and…
🌎 The Neuralink Patient Registry is now open globally! If you have quadriplegia and are interested in exploring groundbreaking ways to control a computer using your thoughts, you can now sign up from anywhere in the world. neuralink.com/patient-regist…
POV, you matched at your dream neurosurgery program! So so grateful for all my mentors, friends, and family. Can’t wait to see what the next seven years bring! #MatchDay2025 #cwrumatchday2025
Over the past year, three people with paralysis have received Neuralink implants. Our latest blog post explores the different and exciting ways each person is using Telepathy in their daily lives. neuralink.com/blog/a-year-of…
Inspiring talk by Dr Jordan Amadio - Director of Neurosurgey at Neuralink - so happy to have hosted his visit and look forward to the 🙌/ Neuralink collaboration
