This tiny brain implant could treat depression at home
A tiny brain implant and a baseball cap might be the future of treating depression.
Motif brain implant with cap

Nearly 3 million Americans suffer from treatment-resistant depression, meaning antidepressants simply don't work for them. Motif Neurotech wants to change that with a tiny brain implant, and the FDA has just greenlighted a human trial to test it.

As reported by Wired, the Houston-based startup has developed a tiny device that sits in the skull, just above the brain's protective membrane.

As seen in the pictures, the Galaxy Glasses have a familiar, rounded sunglasses-style look that’s strikingly similar to the Meta Ray-Bans, which have been on the market for a couple of years now. The “Samsung” branding is there on one of the temple arms, but beyond that, there’s hardly a unique design element that tells them apart.
