NEURALINK MADE HIM THE FIRST PATIENT - NOW HEβS UNSTOPPABLE
21 months after becoming the first human to receive a Neuralink implant, Nolan Arbaugh isnβt just typing with his mind, heβs taking pre-calc, studying neuroscience, and launching a speaking career.
Paralyzed from the neck down after a diving accident, Nolan says the chip, nicknamed βEveβ, made the impossible not only possible, but normal.
Heβs gone from hospital bed to tech conference keynote, with Fortune already cutting the check.
Neuralink doesnβt call him much anymore, he jokes itβs βonce in a blue moonβ, because now, others are joining the trial.
And as for Nolan? Heβs building a brand, getting straight As, and teasing βbig newsβ for 2026.
Not bad for a guy running on brainwaves.

π¨ NEURALINK SUBMITS FIRST PEER-REVIEWED PAPER WITH HUMAN DATA
Neuralink submitted results from its first 3 patients to the New England Journal of Medicine - the company's first peer-reviewed publication with human data.
Includes safety data. Performance metrics. The stuff that actually matters for regulatory approval and scaling beyond experimental trials.
Brad, the first ALS patient, used Neuralink to narrate and edit a YouTube video using only brain signals. Custom AI trained on his pre-ALS voice recordings restored his natural speech.
He played Mario Kart with his kids using thought control.
"That moment was incredible," said Neuralink co-founder DJ Seo.
Scientific credibility matters. Publishing in NEJM signals they're ready to move from hype to medicine.
