The use of implants that can electrically stimulate or record electrophysiological or
neurochemical activity in nervous tissue is rapidly expanding. Despite remarkable results in …

To ensure long-term consistent neural recordings, next-generation intracortical
microelectrodes are being developed with an increased emphasis on reducing the neuro …

Neural interfaces are connections that enable two-way exchange of information with the
nervous system. These connections can occur at multiple levels, including with peripheral …

The field of neurobionics offers hope to patients with sensory and motor impairment.
Blindness is a common cause of major sensory loss, with an estimated 39 million people …

This review focuses on the application of nanomaterials for neural interfacing. The junction
between nanotechnology and neural tissues can be particularly worthy of scientific attention …

Traditional neuronal interfaces utilize metallic electrodes which in recent years have
reached a plateau in terms of the ability to provide safe stimulation at high resolution or …

Macrophages are key players in many physiological scenarios including tissue
homeostasis. In response to injury, typically the balance between macrophage sub …

The inflammatory brain tissue response to implanted neural electrode devices has hindered
the longevity of these implants. Zwitterionic polymers have a potent anti-fouling effect that …

Intracortical electrodes record neural signals directly from local populations of neurons in the
brain, and conduct them to external electronics that control prosthetics. However, the …

Neuroscience is at a crossroads. Great effort is being invested into deciphering specific
neural interactions and circuits. At the same time, there exist few general theories or …
