An Artificial Retina with the Capacity to Restore Normal Vision

For the First Time, Researchers Decipher the Retina’s Neural Code for Brain Communication to Create Novel, More Effective Prosthetic Retinal Device for Blindness

NEW YORK–(ENEWSPF)–August 13, 2012 — Two researchers at Weill Cornell Medical College have deciphered a mouse’s retina’s neural code and coupled this information to a novel prosthetic device to restore sight to blind mice. The researchers say they have also cracked the code for a monkey retina — which is essentially identical…
