NCT ID NCT07460037

Summary

This study aims to understand how the brain processes imagined Mandarin Chinese speech by recording electrical signals directly from the brain's surface. It involves patients who are already having brain surgery for conditions like epilepsy or tumors, or those with severe speech loss from stroke or ALS. The goal is to gather knowledge to eventually build technology that lets people communicate using only their thoughts.
