Rice U. engineers’ device is gentle on neurons, could serve as sensory prosthesis. Conventional implantable medical devices designed for brain stimulation are often too rigid and bulky for what is one…
… brings blood pressure monitoring to your fingertips. Engineers at the University of California San Diego have developed a simple, low-cost clip that uses a smartphone’s camera and flash to…
Chen’s team used ultrasound to safely, noninvasively induce a torpor-like state in mice, rats. Some mammals and birds have a clever way to preserve energy and heat by going into…
Researchers at the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology used deep learning to develop a new framework for super-resolution ultrasound. Traditional super-resolution ultrasound techniques use microbubbles: tiny spheres of…
Engineers at UC San Diego develop a fully integrated system for deep-tissue monitoring. A team of engineers at the University of California San Diego has developed the first fully integrated…
A new device invented with the help of an electrophysiologist at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center makes a heart procedure safer for patients suffering from atrial fibrillation (AFib),…
