# Neuralink Joins UCSB Bionic Eye Clinical Study

> clinical trial · REPORTED · 2025-07-25

Neuralink's participation was disclosed on ClinicalTrials.gov in late July in a visual prosthetics clinical trial sponsored by the University of California at Santa Barbara, in collaboration with researchers in Spain, aimed at developing a smart bionic eye. Note: a subsequent update indicated Neuralink's listing may have been a data entry error, and the company stated it is not involved in this specific trial.
