BARCELONA, Spain--(BUSINESS WIRE)--INBRAIN Neuroelectronics, a brain-computer interface therapeutics (BCI-Tx) company pioneering graphene-based neural technologies, announced today the world’s first human procedure of its cortical interface in a patient undergoing brain tumor resection. INBRAIN’s BCI technology was able to differentiate between healthy and cancerous brain tissue with micrometer-scale precision..

西班牙巴塞罗那——(商业新闻短讯)——INBRAIN Neuroelectronics,一家脑-计算机接口治疗(BCI-Tx)公司,开创了基于石墨烯的神经技术,今天宣布了世界上第一个在接受脑肿瘤切除术的患者中进行皮质界面的人体手术。INBRAIN的脑机接口技术能够以微米级的精度区分健康和癌性脑组织。。

This milestone represents a significant advancement in demonstrating the ability of graphene-based BCI technology beyond decoding and translating brain signals, to become a reliable tool for use in precision surgery in diseases such as cancer, and in neurotechnology more broadly. The study was sponsored by the University of Manchester, and primarily funded by the European Commission’s Graphene Flagship project..

这一里程碑标志着在证明基于石墨烯的BCI技术超越解码和翻译大脑信号的能力方面取得了重大进展,成为用于癌症等疾病的精确手术以及更广泛的神经技术的可靠工具。这项研究由曼彻斯特大学赞助,主要由欧盟委员会的石墨烯旗舰项目资助。。

The clinical investigation study was conducted at Salford Royal Hospital, part of the Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust in Manchester, UK. The study was led by Chief Clinical Investigator Dr. David Coope, a neurosurgeon at the Manchester Centre for Clinical Neuroscience and Brain Tumours Theme Lead at the Geoffrey Jefferson Brain Research Centre, and Chief Scientific Investigator Kostas Kostarelos, Ph.D., Professor of Nanomedicine at The University of Manchester, the Catalan Institute of Nanoscience & Nanotechnology, and Co-Founder of INBRAIN..

这项临床研究是在英国曼彻斯特北部护理联盟NHS基金会信托基金会的一部分索尔福德皇家医院进行的。该研究由首席临床研究者大卫·库普博士领导,他是杰弗瑞·杰斐逊大脑研究中心曼彻斯特临床神经科学和脑肿瘤主题中心的神经外科医生,也是首席科学研究者科斯塔斯·科斯塔雷洛斯博士,曼彻斯特大学纳米医学教授,加泰罗尼亚纳米科学与纳米技术研究所,INBRAIN的联合创始人。。

“The world’s first human application of a graphene-based BCI highlights the transformative impact of graphene-based neural technologies in medicine. This clinical milestone opens a new era for BCI technology, paving the way for advancements in both neural decoding and its application as a therapeutic intervention,” said Carolina Aguilar, CEO and Co-Founder of INBRAIN Neuroelectronics..

INBRAIN Neuroelectronics首席执行官兼联合创始人卡罗莱纳·阿吉拉尔(Carolina Aguilar)表示:“世界上第一次人类应用基于石墨烯的脑机接口突出了基于石墨烯的神经技术在医学上的变革性影响。这一临床里程碑为脑机接口技术开辟了一个新时代,为神经解码及其作为治疗干预的应用铺平了道路。”。。

INBRAIN’s BCI platform leverages the exceptional properties of graphene, a material made of a single layer of carbon atoms. Despite being the thinnest known material to science, graphene is stronger than steel and possesses a unique combination of electronic and mechanical properties that make it ideal for neurotechnology innovation..

INBRAIN的BCI平台利用了石墨烯的特殊性能,石墨烯是一种由单层碳原子制成的材料。尽管石墨烯是科学界已知的最薄的材料,但它比钢更坚固,并且具有独特的电子和机械性能组合,使其成为神经技术创新的理想选择。。

“We are capturing brain activity in areas where traditional metals and materials struggle with signal fidelity. Graphene provides ultra-high density for sensing and stimulating, which is critical to conduct high precision resections while preserving the patient’s functional capacities, such as movement, language or cognition,” said Dr.

“我们正在捕捉传统金属和材料难以保持信号保真度的区域的大脑活动。石墨烯为传感和刺激提供超高密度,这对于进行高精度切除至关重要,同时保留患者的功能能力,如运动、语言或认知,”Dr。

“After extensive engineering development and pre-clinical trials, INBRAIN’s first-in-human study will involve 8-10 patients, primarily to demonstrate the safety of graphene in direct contact with the human brain,” said Kostas Kostarelos, Ph.D., Co-Founder, INBRAIN Neuroelectronics. “The study will also aim to demonstrate graphene’s superiority over other materials in decoding brain functionality in both awake and asleep states.”.

INBRAIN Neuroelectronics联合创始人Kostas Kostarelos博士说:“经过广泛的工程开发和临床前试验,INBRAIN的首次人体研究将涉及8-10名患者,主要是为了证明石墨烯与人脑直接接触的安全性。”。“这项研究还旨在证明石墨烯在清醒和睡眠状态下解码大脑功能方面优于其他材料。”。

“The integration of graphene and AI with advanced semiconductor technology has allowed INBRAIN to pioneer a new generation of minimally-invasive BCI therapeutics designed for the personalized treatment of neurological disorders,” said Jose A. Garrido, Ph.D., Co-Founder and Chief Scientific Officer of INBRAIN and ICREA Professor at the Catalan Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology..

INBRAIN联合创始人兼首席科学官、加泰罗尼亚纳米科学与技术研究所(Catalan Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology)ICREA教授何塞·加里多(Jose a.Garrido)博士表示:“石墨烯和人工智能与先进半导体技术的结合,使INBRAIN开创了新一代微创脑机接口(BCI)疗法,旨在个性化治疗神经系统疾病。”。。

Professor Sir Kostya Novoselov, Ph.D., Nobel Laureate and Vision Board member of INBRAIN, who first isolated stable graphene at The University of Manchester in 2004, and now at the National University of Singapore, said: “Witnessing graphene's exceptional properties unlock new frontiers in medical technology is truly rewarding.

诺贝尔奖获得者、INBRAIN愿景委员会成员、博士Kostya Novoselov爵士于2004年在曼彻斯特大学(University of Manchester)和新加坡国立大学(National University of Singapore)首次分离出稳定的石墨烯,他说:“见证石墨烯的优异性能开启了医疗技术的新领域,真是值得的。

This breakthrough, a result of a decade-long development under the Graphene Flagship program, can now start to unravel its transformative societal impact.”.

这一突破是石墨烯旗舰计划十年发展的结果,现在可以开始揭示其变革性的社会影响。”。

The study is powered by INBRAIN’s graphene-based Intelligent Network Decoding & Modulation (BCI-Tx) Platform, which has received Breakthrough Device Designation for Parkinson’s disease from the U.S. Food & Drug Administration. INBRAIN’s BCI-Tx platform leverages graphene’s unique properties to deliver ultra-high signal resolution and adaptive neuroelectronic therapy, enabling real-time decoding of biomarkers and precise modulation of cortical and subcortical structures at the micrometer scale for neural network rebalancing..
