Shirley Ryan AbilityLab is pioneering a first-of-its-kind clinical study that could redefine the future of upper-limb prosthetics. Recently, the study reached a major milestone when a Chicago-area man underwent an operation at Northwestern Medicine that consisted of implanting a titanium fixture into the bone of the residual limb and placing electrodes onto his muscles and around his nerves. Now, he is set to become the first person in the U.S. to receive a bionic arm connected directly to his bone, nerves and muscles — an advanced prosthesis designed to be controlled by his own neural signals and return sensory feedback in real time.
