Slim Electrode Cozies Up to Single Neuron
From: University of Michigan

A thin, flexible electrode developed at the University of Michigan is 10
times smaller than the nearest competition and could make long-term
measurements of neural activity practical at last.

This kind of technology could eventually be used to send signals to
prosthetic limbs, overcoming inflammation larger electrodes cause that
damages both the brain and the electrodes.
