A man with severe brain damage regained ability to talk, eat, and move after the doctors implanted an electrical device inside his brain. He suffered a brain injury 6 years ago. He barely even responded to the world around him. The operation took 10 hours. Dr. Rezai put two electrodes in the center of the brain. They looked like a walnut. "We're essentially jump-starting the brain", Rezia said. Immediately after surgery the man opened his eyes and began responding to voices. The man remains severely disabled. His muscles are weak from disuse. He is now better than he was.
