Project BioSpine

Project BioSpine is a research initiative based at Griffith University, dedicated to developing innovative therapies for restoring movement and sensation in individuals with spinal cord injuries (SCI). The project combines various rehabilitation technologies, drug therapies, and advanced brain-machine interfaces to enhance recovery outcomes. By utilizing a digital twin model of the patient's neuromusculoskeletal system, BioSpine aims to optimize neural plasticity and reconnect disrupted brain-to-muscle pathways. The initiative offers a non-invasive rehabilitation system that stimulates both motor and sensory systems in SCI patients, facilitating voluntary movement and sensation. It also employs brain-machine interface technology to translate brain signals into muscle activation, allowing movement through thought. Clinical trials have shown promising results, including regained movement and improved muscle and bone health. BioSpine primarily benefits individuals with incomplete spinal cord injuries and aims to improve their quality of life through advanced rehabilitation technologies.
