Casey Harrell is a 45-year-old Californian who made headlines after regaining his voice for the first time in four years due to a groundbreaking brain-computer interface developed by researchers at the University of California, Davis. Harrell, who suffers from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), expressed profound emotion upon hearing his own voice, which had been silenced by the disease that affects the nerves controlling his throat muscles. This innovative technology allows him to communicate more fluidly by interpreting his neural signals in real-time.
