How Did You and Your Team Set Out to Restore Speech?

We've been really intensely studying how the cerebral cortex, brain activity, lated to speech, allows us to control the movements of the vocal folds. And we started with a vocabulary of 50 words, which can be combined to create several hundred useful sentences.
