THE QUEST FOR INJECTABLE BRAIN IMPLANTS HAS BEGUN

While brain implants have the potential to significantly improve patients' lives, the brain and metal do not work well together. Electrodes can cause injury and scar tissue, which in turn makes devices less effective. To avoid this problem, a team of scientists has designed a gel that can be injected into tissues and solidifies into an electrically conductive polymer. This polymer electrode is harmless and can be moved just as easily as the brain tissue around it. The gel could enable flexible electronic neural implants in the future.
