A preliminary study in Australia has
shown the promise of brain-computer interfaces in treating stroke
victims. The research, conducted by the University of Adelaide, showed

interfaces are devices which can translate signals from the brain into
computer commands. Professor Derek Abbott told Dan Damon how it works.
