Here come the rice-grain-sized brain implants: Stanford discovers way of beaming power to microimplants deep inside your body

2014-05-20 14:30:50| Extremetech

Stanford electrical engineer and biological implant mastermind, Ada Poon, has discovered a way of wirelessly transmitting power to tiny, rice-grain-sized implants that are deep within the human body. This could well be the breakthrough that finally allows for the creation of smaller pacemakers, body-wide sensor networks, and a new class of "electroceutical" devices that sit deep in the human brain and stimulate neurons directly, providing an alternative for drug-based therapies for depression, Alzheimer's, and other neurological ailments.
