Worlds first brain implant to treat depression begins 2nd human trial. Moving one step closer to being available to the public.
Scientists at Inner Cosmos attempted to treat a patient’s depression by implanting electrodes into their skull. Their implant sought to ease the patient’s depression through short electric impulses. The hardware is about the size of a penny and actively balances the brain’s stimulation for about 15 minutes each day.
The company is working on finding ways to make the surgery process less invasive to avoid barrier to entry for new patients. A second round of human trials is currently in planning as Inner Cosmos moves closer to bringing their implant to market.
