Can we restore movement in patients with spinal cord injuries while also bringing back the sensation they've lost? In this episode of the BCI Award Neurocareers podcast series, we dive deep into this critical question with Prof. Chad Bouton, a pioneer in neuroengineering and bioelectronic medicine. Spinal cord injuries often lead to permanent loss of movement and sensation, leaving millions worldwide with limited options for recovery. While various treatments have shown promise in restoring movement, sensation restoration remains a significant hurdle. That's where Prof. Chad Bouton and his team at Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research come in. They've developed a revolutionary technology called the Double Neural Bypass (DNB), which directly interfaces the brain, body, and spinal cord to restore lasting movement and sensation in people with paralysis. This groundbreaking work has earned them a place as one of the 12 final nominees for the prestigious BCI Award 2023. Prof. Bouton, VP of Advanced Engineering at Northwell Health, Professor, and Managing Director of the Center for Bioelectronic Medicine, has dedicated his career to pushing the boundaries of what's possible in neuroprosthetics and biomedical technology. His innovations have enabled the first paralyzed person to regain movement through brain activity alone and also advanced cancer detection methods, among other achievements. With over 70 international patents and numerous accolades, including being named Inventor of the Year at Battelle, Prof. Bouton is a leading figure in neuroengineering. In this episode, Prof. Bouton shares the story behind the Double Neural Bypass, how it works, and the incredible potential it holds for the future of neuroprosthetics. He also offers insights into his career journey and provides valuable advice for those aspiring to innovate. Whether you're fascinated by cutting-edge technology, interested in neuroprosthetics, or simply curious about the future of medical advancements, this episode is a must-listen.
