A tiny strip of printed nanomaterials fired an electrical spike, and a living mouse brain cell answered back. That exchange, reported in April 2025 by researchers at Northwestern University, marks the ...

Brain implants have improved dramatically in recent years, but they’re still invasive and unreliable. A new kind of brain-machine interface using living neurons to form connections could be the future ...

In 2014, researchers at the University of Illinois created a microscopic swimming robot. This accomplishment alone might not have attracted much attention. But what set it apart was how they ...

Many ionic neuromorphic devices rely on nanoconfinement to control ion transport, bu the limited range of interactions at the interfaces and ionic crosstalk during integration restrict their ...
