Cancer cure any day now.

A wire in the motor cortex controlling a mini go-kart is a step away from controlling an electric wheelchair the same way. Not every smart guy is into molecular biology. Some like electronics.

But why would the rat need a wheelchair?

Perhaps it was disabled in a skiing accident.
