Problem:
Most current implantable brain devices stimulate large regions of the brain without sensing. These devices are not able to access the fine multi-scale architecture comprising brain function and do not interact with the brain’s capacity for self-reorganization and repair.
Solution:
An implantable electronic micro-sensor array on flexible substrate for the measurement and manipulation of neuronal activity with circuitry to adapt performance based on input patterns.
