As BrainGate is a product, I'd suggest this page be merged with Neurochip or renamed Brain-computer interfacing technology and broadened to include dother aspects of brain computer interface technology. -- Saganaki- 01:43, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
I would disagree. Brain computer interface already exists and is quite long (if nebulous), whereas this article is quite specific. In the section on invasive BCI's the BrainGate is mentioned but not in much detail and without any links for further info. It's not so much a product at this stage as an experimental prototype. -- PaulWicks 08:52, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Hello Wikipedia community,
I would like to introduce myself and disclose potential conflicts of interest with regards to my edits to this page. I am a member of the BrainGate2 team (the original BrainGate clinical trial by CyberKinetics Inc. has ended and has been replaced by a purely academic/government, non-commercial team). As you may see, this entry on the BrainGate project is short and extremely out of date. I would like to add more and more timely factual information about the BrainGate2 Neural Interface System device and research project. Given that we are a high-profile research team running a clinical trial of this investigatory neuroprosthetic system, I feel that a better Wikipedia entry will be of worth to persons interested in learning more about the project, the underlying science, or the potential medical applications of this device.
I have read the Wikipedia policy on conflicts of interest, and so I will attempt to solicit community input regarding changes, and to be very frank about my affiliations. If someone else wishes to update this article, that'd be great, but since it's gone largely unchanged for years I've taken it upon myself to do so until such a person comes along.
My affiliation with the subject of this entry is as follows: I am an employee of Massachusetts General Hospital (which is responsible for the current clinical trial), Brown University (which is where most of the science and device development is done), and the United States Department of Veterans Affairs, Research Service, which is one of the primary sponsors of this joint academic/government/clinical project. I am a junior scientific member of the team.
I am also a first-time Wikipedia editor (but a long-time visitor) so I apologize in advance for mistakes I may make, and would be very appreciative of advice and aid.
It will take a while before you start to see substantial edits to this page, but some immediate changes that I will make will be to eliminate the broken link to the website of Cyberkinetics (which has wound down its operations and is no longer involved in the project). Additionally, and here I am prepared for some controversy, I am eliminating the link to www.braingate.com, which is a misleading website owned by a private individual unaffiliated with the original BrainGate research nor the current BrainGate2 phase of the research. I will instead link to www.braingate2.org, which is our current temporary website.
Yes, braingate2.org looks like it came from 1996; I assure you that this is a placeholder website and that a much more informative and professionally done website is coming.
I welcome any comments by anyone who is interested in the BrainGate project or this Wikipedia article. Please be patient with me to add more content to the article and/or our website. Cutting-edge brain-machine interface development is rather time-consuming and leaves less time for educating the world about what we do than I would like.

added page Braingate2. I used content from your website (since you disclosed your conflict of interest). Feel free to edit as you see appropriate.-- Fitibones ( talk) 01:10, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
Given the discussion above, would it be useful to have a new section on the current status of the project? The article reads as if the project is ongoing. -- PaulWicks ( talk) 15:13, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
Anyone ese feel the introduction is too long before the table of contents, and then everything below that is too short? Would it not be better to move some of the details from the introduction into the main body of the article? Seems pointless having the table of contents more than 2/3rds in to the content of the page. Not suggesting actually deleting any of the information, but couldn't most of it be moved into a sub section of the main body rather than in the prelude section? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.44.109.8 ( talk) 13:26, 19 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi,
I plan to make a few small edits to this article. I have a family member who works on this technology. I receive no compensation for this, and I make changes that should be quite simple, referenced, and non-controversial. If anyone has any doubts, feel free to revert. Amir E.
