Israeli Scientists Develop a Chip to Control Parkinson’s and Other Brain Disorders
Israeli scientists have developed an implantable chip that delivers precise stimulation to control disorders such as depression or Parkinson’s disease.
The platform, says Professor Matti Mintz of the University of Tel Aviv, is flexible enough to be programmed for specific disorders. For example, it could restore lost functions of the brain after a traumatic brain injury from a car accident or stroke.
