Neuroprosthetics: an outlook on active challenges toward clinical adoption.

Neural prostheses are designed to counter the effects of neurotrauma and restore the fundamental building blocks of human experience including motor action, sensation, and meaningful communication with other individuals. Here, we present an overview of active avenues, open questions, and debated topics in neuroprosthetics, such as targeting the mechanisms of sensorimotor recovery and designing brain interfaces for scalability. We review leading opinions in this thriving field, aiming to inform translational practice toward clinical adoption.
