Brain organoids are self-organizing tissue cultures grown from patient cell-derived induced pluripotent stem cells. They form tissue structures that resemble the brain in vivo in many ways. This makes ...

Brain–computer interfaces are technologies that enable direct communication between brain activity and external devices, enabling researchers to monitor and interpret brain signals in real time. These ...

A KAIST research team has developed a highly stretchable microelectrode array (sMEA) designed for non-invasive electrophysiological signal measurement of organoids. The team was led by Professor ...

Fabrication process and actual image of the silicon-based neural microelectrode array. a 1800 μm thick double-polished silicon wafer. b Microneedle array root fabrication with etching. c Microneedle ...

A research team has developed a nanocomposite-modified microelectrode array (MEA) that enables long-term, high-sensitivity monitoring of neuronal activity during hibernation. Their findings were ...

Drug development for the treatment of amyloid lateral sclerosis (ALS) requires an understanding of how genetic mutations lead to the ALS phenotype. Researchers use human induced pluripotent stem cell ...

Technological advances have led to an array of medical monitoring tools that people can use without the aid of medical professionals, like smartwatches, glucose monitors, and health tracking apps.

Implantable electrodes for the (human) brain have been around for a many decades in the form of Utah arrays and kin, but these tend to be made out of metal, which can cause issues when stimulating the ...
