I think that is the amazing part here. It seems the researcher was doing the same type of work, implanting stimulators to study nerve function below the injury. Something in this case however is allowing on-demand capabilities and that is a mystery.
- DSMan195276 13y agoI would agree. My best guess is that they have a partial injury, so the stimulation allows the action potential to travel past the damaged part of the nerve. The article didn't really say though. They did say he had no movement past the waist, which is more of an indication of a full injury, so I'm not really sure.
