In a significant advance that could transform the field of neural monitoring, researchers have developed a bioelectronic implant that grows and adapts alongside living tissue – a feat that has long eluded medical device developers. … “For our innovation, we used organic polymer materials that are inherently closer to us biologically, and we designed it to interact with ions, because the language of the brain and body is ionic, not electronic,” explains Dr. Dion Khodagholy, Henry Samueli Faculty Excellence Professor at UC Irvine’s Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.
