A new ‘pop-up’ device developed by Professor John Rogers lets scientists map and manipulate activity in human neural ...

Precise electrical stimulation is essential for modern neural interfaces, but unwanted current spread often activates off-target cells and limits resolution. A new microneedle electrode design ...

Researchers uncover dynamic “dancing” molecules in spinal cord organoids, offering insights into neural development and ...

In a recent study published in Cell Stem Cell, researchers produced three-dimensional (3D) bioprinted human brain tissues, allowing for the creation of functioning neural networks that could simulate ...

To facilitate nerve regrowth, tissue engineers employ biodegradable polymer scaffolds. Shown at left, a micrograph of an actual scaffold used to stimulate spinal cord regeneration in rats. Center, a ...

Scientists have built a soft, three-dimensional electronic device that can wrap around lab-grown human ...

Neural crest cells are a population of stem cells that invade the embryo in early development. They play a big role in what ...

A study led by Dartmouth Engineering professors demonstrates a possible new technique for connecting electronic implants with the surface of the brain, as well as a new method for ensuring safe, ...
