Neuralink’s three implants are part of its ongoing Prime study, which is evaluating the safety of Neuralink’s brain device in individuals with quadriplegia. In September 2024, the company announced the approval of a second study known as Convoy, which will explore extending its brain device capabilities to control an assistive robotic arm.

The company Neuralink, owned by Elon Musk, has implanted a chip in the brain of a third patient. To clarify, this patient is a human being. This is just the beginning of this year's plans. The American neurotechnology company from San Francisco plans to conduct dozens of such operations by the end of 2025.

Elon Musk also said the Neuralink has upgraded the devices with more electrodes, higher bandwidth and longer battery life.

Musk announced that the latest implant procedure was successful and that all three patients who have received the Neuralink brain chip are doing well. “We've got now three humans with Neuralinks implanted and they're all working well,

Elon Musk said a third person has received an implant from his brain-computer interface company Neuralink, one of many groups working to connect the nervous system to machines. “We’ve got ... three humans with Neuralinks and all are working well,” he said during a wide-ranging interview at a Las Vegas event streamed on his social media platform X.

Elon Musk revealed that Neuralink's brain-computer device has been successfully implanted in a third patient, with plans for 20 to 30 more implants this year. He confirmed that all three implants are working well, sharing the update during a Las Vegas event streamed on his X platform, formerly known as Twitter.

Neuralink's brain-computer device has been implanted in a third patient and the company has plans for about 20 to 30 more implants in 2025, Elon Musk said.

Elon Musk's Neuralink brain implant has been approved by Health Canada for clinical trials in Canada. Dr. Andres Lozano, a neurosurgeon at Toronto Western Hospital, discusses the upcoming clinical trials and how the technology could help people with disabilities due to spinal cord injuries or ALS.

Elon Musk announced that Neuralink has implanted its third patient, marking a milestone. The company is upgrading its brain-computer interface and plans to expand trials with 20-30 more implants this year,
