Cyberkinetics Neurotechnology Systems, a leader in brain-machine interface technology, is developing products to treat nervous system diseases and disorders by bringing together advances in neuroscience, computer science and engineering. Cyberkinetics' products are based on over ten years of technology development and cutting-edge neuroscience research at leading academic institutions such as Brown University (studies by Dr. John Donoghue, Chair of the Neuroscience Department), the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Emory University, and the University of Utah. Cyberkinetics is publicly traded on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board under the ticker symbol CYKN. The Company is headquartered in Foxborough, Massachusetts, and conducts engineering and research in Salt Lake City, Utah. Cyberkinetics' flagship product, the BrainGate(TM) Neural Interface System, is designed to give severely paralyzed individuals a long-term, direct brain-computer interface for the purpose of communication and control of a computer and other devices. Patients are currently being enrolled into a pilot clinical trial to test the BrainGate System's safety and effectiveness. Cyberkinetics has received FDA clearance to market the NeuroPort(TM) System, a neural monitor designed for acute inpatient applications and labeled for temporary (less than 30 days) recording and monitoring of brain electrical activity. The NeuroPort System can contribute to the diagnosis and treatment of neurological conditions in patients who have undergone craniotomy by providing neurologists and neurosurgeons a new resource to detect, transmit and analyze neural activity. Cyberkinetics retains all distribution rights to the BrainGate and NeuroPort systems. Additional information is available at www.cyberkineticsinc.com.
