Congratulations to Michael Andersen and Jens Schouenborg. For publishing their work on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) as a more biocompatible alternative to glass for optogenetics in Nature Scientific Reports.
Read the full article here:

Optogenetics is highly useful to stimulate or inhibit defined neuronal populations and is often used together with electrophysiological recordings. Due to poor pe*******on of light in tissue, there is a need for biocompatible wave guides. Glass wave guides are relatively stiff and known to cause gli...

Den kontroversielle entreprenören Elon Musks företag Neuralink har fått klartecken att testa sitt hjärnimplantat på människor. Än så länge är det inte klart exakt vad försöken går ut på, men hans förhoppning är bland annat att ge blinda synen tillbaka.

With the DBS (deep brain stimulation) technology used at Neuronano, we never miss the target.

While ensuring electrode coverage of the target area in the brain, optimal symptom relief is achieved by fine-tuning the stimulating pattern electrode by electrode. Stay tuned on our website to find out more about how we work for exact precision technology within DBS.

At Neuronano we work hard every day to find new and modern treatments for diseases such as Parkinson and other neurological conditions.
