Despite the economic risks from President Donald Trump’s tariffs that now include China’s retaliation, Powell reiterated a wait-and-see approach on rates.

Manufacturers took some of the biggest single hits among Chicago-area companies.

AbstractMinimally invasive neural interfaces can be used to diagnose, manage and treat many disorders, with reduced risks of surgical complications. However, endovascular probes lack access to key cortical, subcortical and spinal targets, and are not typically explantable after endothelialization. Here we report the development and testing, in sheep, of endocisternal neural interfaces that approach brain and spinal cord targets through inner and outer spaces filled with cerebrospinal fluid.
