One of the primary motivations of brain-computer interfaces is to restore a full range of movements for paralyzed patients who are unable to move or communicate through normal neural pathways caused by strokes or chronic diseases. The NSF awards Professor Alimohammad of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering to create a transformative brain-implantable processor for drastically relaxing power-hungry wireless neural data transmission through the skull while directly controlling prosthetics in real-time, enabling the rehabilitation of millions of patients. The processor will be tested at the Washington National Primate Research Center at the University of Washington in macaque monkeys.

Affordable Schools report ranks SDSU Electrical Engineering Bachelor's Degree #17 among 'Best Affordable Electrical Engineering Degree Programs.'
