Nanotech may provide a way to “bypass” faulty brain wiring. Research on the interactions between carbon nanotubes and neurons shows that electrical phenomena in nanotubes can be linked to neuronal excitability and may lead to engineering interactions between nanomaterials and neurons. News from EPFL (Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne) “ New’smart’ materials for the brain “: Research…
