Great news for paraplegics - Dr Jon Spratley has developed a chip to enable paraplegics to control devices using "brain power".
As Dr Spratley, aged 28, puts it himself:
"We are just trying to help people with severe communication problems or motor neurone disease - like Dr Stephen Hawking or Christopher Reeve".
That will need to be quite a powerful chip - given that Christopher Reeve is not only paraplegic, but distinctly DEAD.
