BBC NEWS | Health | Mind power moves paralysed limbs: "Scientists have shown it is possible to harness brain signals and redirect them to make paralysed limbs move.

The technology bypasses injuries that stop nerve signals travelling from the brain to the muscles, offering hope for people with spinal damage.

So far the US team from the University of Washington have only tested their 'brain-machine interfaces' in monkeys.

The hope is to develop implantable circuits for humans without the need for robotic limbs, Nature reports."
