1. NEURALINK Neuralink Corporation is a neurotechnology company developing implantable brain-machine interfaces (BMIs). Co-founded by Elon Musk, Max Hodak and Paul Merolla, the company is headquartered in the Pioneer Building in San Francisco and shares offices with OpenAI. Neuralink launched in 2016 and was first publicly announced in March 2017. Since its inception, the company has hired several top neuroscientists from various universities. By July 2019, it had received $158 million in funding (including $100 million from Musk) and employed 90 employees. At the time, Neuralink announced it was working on a "sewing machine-like" device capable of implanting very thin (4 to 6 μm wide) threads into the brain, and demonstrated a system that reads information from a lab rat via 1,500 electrodes. They anticipated starting human experiments in 2020; but they have since moved that projection to 2022. Several neuroscientists and publications, including the MIT Technology Review, ha
