A study led by Dartmouth Engineering professors demonstrates a possible new technique for connecting electronic implants with ...

Precise electrical stimulation is essential for modern neural interfaces, but unwanted current spread often activates ...

University of Toronto researchers have developed a flexible, biodegradable electrode capable of stimulating neural precursor cells (NPCs) in the brain—a device capable of delivering targeted ...

Rice University neuroscientist Chong Xie leads a team that has won a $2.9 million grant from the NIH to develop a state-of-the-art implantable neural electrode system. HOUSTON – (July 17, 2024) – Rice ...

The ability to restore light responses in human retinas postmortem offers a novel model for studying retinal recovery and ...

Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible speed. Researchers have now developed a 3D-printed 'brain-like environment' ...

The brain is probably the least explored organ, much of which is due to the difficulty of studying it in situ rather than in slices under a microscope. Even growing small organoids out of neurons ...

Researchers have used a novel technique to 3D print brain tissue whose cells developed into functional neurons that communicated with each other in a matter of weeks. They say the approach could be ...
