<p>➀ The European Research Council (ERC) is funding a project called 'PlayAgain' at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) aimed at developing neural interfaces to help children regain motor function in their hands.</p><p>➁ The project aims to strengthen or restore connections from the brain to the muscles of the paralyzed hand using a neural interface, potentially enabling intuitive control of neuroprostheses for grasping.</p><p>➂ The team hopes that with successful development, this technology could significantly improve the quality of life for children with neuromuscular impairments, allowing them to perform daily tasks and activities more independently.</p>
