#111 - Kurt Haggstrom: Building Practical Brain–Computer Interfaces for ALS Communication
A grounded discussion on how brain–computer interfaces are moving from research into real clinical use, with a focus on restoring communication and autonomy for ALS patients. Kurt Hagstrom explains the technical constraints, regulatory realities, and why simplicity, scalability, and long-term reliability matter more than hype.

Synchron: Our sponsor Synchron has received permission to start their third clinical trial on the BCI investigational medical device that received FDA Breakthrough Device Designation in 2020. You or a loved one may be eligible to participate.
The Synchron BCI is a fully implanted system designed to allow users to control digital devices using their thoughts. No eye trackers, voice commands or hand movements are required. Since 2018, they have completed 2 clinical trials that met their respective safety goals. This new INTENT trial will further evaluate safety while also exploring how it may support communication, connection, independence, and quality of life.
