A Swiss research center is trying to use innovative technology to help restore bodily functions for paralyzed patients—and even help Parkinson's patients walk smoothly again.

An Ironman athlete, told she'd never walk again after an accident more than six years ago, is now part of an early clinical trial, in which skull and spine implants help patients move paralyzed limbs.

Mike Tomlin famously is the one who last year urged George Pickens to "grow up,'' so this Steelers reveal isn't shocking.
