The Bionic Woman

A 46yo British woman who suffered 2 strokes which left her left side paralysed has undergone surgery to implant 5 bionic microstimulators into her arm. The microstimulators were implanted close to the nerves supplying muscles in the womans arm and act like "bionic neurons" to mimick messages from the brain. The system is designed to help her arm 're-learn' movements it lost after the stroke.
