Biocompatible sensor implant conforms to organ growth
“Advanced electronics have been in development for several decades now, so there is a large repository of available circuit designs. The problem is that most of these transistor and amplifier technologies are not compatible with our physiology,” said co-author Dion Khodagholy, Henry Samueli Faculty Excellence Professor in UC Irvine’s Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.

Biden Administration Is Building a U.S.-Mexico Border Wall that Could Worsen Flooding in Both Nations
The 1980 flood in the Tijuana River Valley was one of its worst. Rains filled nearby reservoirs so much that water had to be released into the already-raging Tijuana River. If a wall stood in the river then, like the one Customs and Border Protection is building right now, it would be met with water speeds and force equivalent to 175 fully-loaded shipping containers hitting the barrier every second, according to Jochen Schubert, [specialist, civil & environmental engineering], a flood risk expert at University of California, Irvine.

Biocompatible Transistors for Long-Term Neural Monitoring
Researchers at the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) and Columbia University have developed a new sensor implant that uses soft, conformable materials embedded with transistors to monitor neurological functions. This biocompatible device adapts to a patient’s physiological changes over time, making it particularly useful for pediatric applications. Read More
