Building artificial nerve cells
22 February 2022 Monica Westman Svenselius For the first time, researchers demonstrate an artificial organic neuron, a nerve cell, that can be integrated with a living plant and an artificial organic synapse. Both the neuron and the synapse are made from printed organic electrochemical transistors. Chi-Yuan Yang and Padinhare Cholakkal Harikesh, post-doctoral researchers at the...
Artificial nerve cells could cure chronic diseases
by CORDIS With its promise to bring new insights into the diagnosis and treatment of conditions as varied as cancer, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, bioelectronic medicine is now in the spotlight. Bringing together various fields like biochemistry, molecular medicine, neuroscience, immunology, electrical and mechanical engineering, computer science and mathematics, bioelectronic medicine focuses on electrical signaling...
