Flexible nanoelectrodes can provide precise brain stimulation

Science and Technology Daily, Beijing, June 1st (Reporter Zhang Mengran) - Traditional implantable medical devices designed to stimulate the brain are usually too hard and bulky for the softest and most fragile tissues in the body. To address this issue, engineers at Rice University in the United States have developed minimally invasive, ultra flexible nanoelectrodes that can serve as implantation platforms for long-term, high-resolution stimulation therapy...
