Five Years Using a Brain-Computer Interface: Rodney Gorham’s Experience with ALS Rodney Gorham, a 65-year-old man with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), has lived with a Synchron brain-computer interface for five years, making him the longest user of this experimental technology. The implant, called the Stentrode, is a mesh tube placed via the jugular vein to the motor cortex, allowing Gorham to control digital devices using only his thoughts. Over time, he progressed from simple single clicks to multi-clicks, sliding controls, and full 2D cursor movement. He has used the interface to operate smart home devices, iPhones, iPads, and even a robotic vacuum, contributing directly to Apple’s Switch Control accessibility feature. Gorham’s involvement has helped Synchron refine both hardware and software, including removing wires in its second-generation system to make it easier for caregivers to use. While Gorham’s ALS has progressed, requiring more concentration and causing fatigue, his experience raises broader questions about the long-term usability of brain-computer interfaces for patients with neurodegenerative diseases and their potential cost and insurance coverage. Synchron continues to work toward regulatory approval and broader clinical trials, aiming to make these devices accessible for people with paralysis and other movement impairments.
