The FDA Approved UCSF’s Adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation (aDBS), A Breakthrough Parkinson’s Treatment. Unlike Continuous DBS, aDBS Uses Real-Time Brain Signals To Target The Subthalamic Nucleus With Precise Electrical Pulses. It Offers Fast Mode (Instant PD Symptom Relief) And Slow Mode (Stabilization). AI-Driven aDBS For Wider PD Symptoms Is Anticipated.

Cortical Labs’ CL1 Is The World’s First Biological Computer, Combining Human Neurons And A Silicon Chip. The Shoebox-Sized Device, With Neurons Fed By Nutrient Broth, Simulates Learning & May Advance Brain & Drug Research. It Lasts 6 Months, Costs $35k, & Ships In Late 2025. Some Scientists Raise Ethical Concerns About Neurons Consciousness.
