Cyberkinetics Cyberkinetics is a leader in the development of brain-computer interfaces with more than ten years of success in commercializing products for neuroscience research. Today, we bring together advances in neuroscience, computer science and engineering to develop products for emerging neurotechnology markets.
With a focus on individuals who have severe motor disabilities, Cyberkinetics is specifically applying its technology to the development of safe and effective systems to provide novel communication interfaces, the ability to control their environment and the potential to one day regain limb movement.
Hi Suwakee,Duchenne occurs amoslt exclusively in boys because the Duchenne gene (dystrophin) is found on the X-chromosome. Young men have one each of the X- and Y-chromosomes, whereas girls have two X-chromosomes. Young men are therefore at greater risk of inheriting disorders caused by damaged genes on the X-chromosome, since they lack a second X-chromosome to “make up” for the damaged gene.
