- December 7 (Reuters) - Elon Musk's Neuralink, which Reuters said on Monday is the subject of a federal inquiry into its animal testing program, has been working on developing a brain implant that would allow the paraplegic to walk and the blind to see.

Quick Glance: USDA directive mandates bird flu testing for dairy cows in interstate transport
- A new federal directive from the USDA states that dairy cows transported across state lines must be tested for bird flu.
- Following the discovery of bird flu virus fragments in pasteurized milk, the FDA initiated a survey of commercially sold milk.
- The presence of the virus in the commercial milk supply indicates previous measures were insufficient in controlling its spread.
- In addition to testing dairy cows before transport, the Wednesday's order mandates state veterinary labs to report positive tests to federal health authorities.
