Understanding how populations of neurons transform the activities of individual neurons into complex behaviors is one of the greatest challenges in neuroscience research.
Multifunctional Neurotechnologies
However, current technologies for monitoring and controlling neurons do not provide sufficient spatial and temporal resolution to decipher the functions of neuronal circuits.
For this reason, multifunctional neurotechnologies that combine electrical, optical, and chemical sensing and stimulation modalities have been proposed to overcome resolution limitations. Research in multifunctional probes has fueled the demand for new materials for minimally invasive chronic brain interfaces.
Graphene
It has recently emerged as a neural interface material that exhibits several outstanding properties such as optical transparency, flexibility, high conductivity, functionalization, and biocompatibility.
The unique combination of these properties in a single material system makes graphene an attractive choice for multimodal investigation of neural activity. In this review, we discuss recent advances in graphene-based neurotechnology, highlight different approaches, and discuss new directions inspired by graphene’s unique properties.
- How To Empower The Brain? All of us know that success does not always come that simple and it requires years of perseverance and hard work for us to achieve it. That having been said, do you realize that training your mind can allow you to unleash its potential and allow you to control your success rate? Being successful is in the mind and enabling your head can enable you to become a happier and more productive individual very quickly. Take note Below are some ways that will help you strengthen your mind and unlock…
- What To Do Against Toxic Poisoning? My travel toxins probably started around the same time as yours. I wanted to discuss my relationship with toxins since I don't think I am quite different from most other individuals. Although the details are most likely to be distinct, we drank in the same faucet, ate the same food and breathed the same air. Health issues You might have been luckier than me with your health, but you might also still not understand what it is that's making you tired and sick. Our first exposure to toxins occurs before…
- Are There Alternative Cancer Treatments? Insulin Potentiation Therapy, generally known by the initials IPT, is another treatment that uses standard, approved cancer-fighting drugs in lower doses, thereby eliminating a number of the debilitating side effects so common with traditional chemotherapy. Side effects The side effects are significantly reduced since the chemotherapy doses can be as low as 10-15% of the normal dosage. IPT was designed by Dr. Donato Perez Garcia (1896-1971) in Mexico, who promised it to be particularly successful with breast cancer. Indeed, that if a cancer could be beneficially affected by existing chemotherapy…
