To work towards this ambitious goal, Dutch research centers with long-standing expertise in the neurosciences have partnered up with medical centers, patient organizations and technology companies, not only from the Netherlands, but also from several other countries as well.
CorTec works on the subproject lead by Dr. Nick Ramsey at the University Medical Center Utrecht on paralysis and motor impairment. Specifically, CorTec will provide customized high-density electrodes along with the Brain Interchange Implant system for a pilot clinical study with a paralyzed patient for recovery of speech.
“We are very excited to collaborate on this ambitious project and bring our Brain Interchange system to a new clinical application with a high unmet clinical need”, says Dr. Jörn Rickert, CorTec’s Chief Strategic & Scientific Officer.
