Advances in implantable neurotechnologies could have a profound impact on rehabilitation, with consequent game-changing implications for personal injury and clinical negligence claims, Harry Lambert, barrister at Crown Office Chambers, explains in this week’s NLJ.
The developments are huge and have the potential to transform the treatment of conditions ranging from cerebral palsy to limb loss and blindness. Personal injury lawyers should therefore be aware that claimants injured now could benefit in the very near future.
In Lambert’s words, his article gives ‘a whistlestop guide around the human body, looking at the tech that looks set to transform personal injury quantum’. It is the latest in a series of NLJ pieces penned by Lambert, who is the founder and head of the Centre for Neurotechnology & Law.RELATED ARTICLES
