There are many secondary functions associated with designing an electrocardiogram (ECG) signal chain, but one of the most important might be the most underrated: making sure that the electrodes are ...

Some of the most revealing signals about human health are carried in fluids that are almost impossible to measure.

In brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) and other neural implant systems, electrodes serve as the critical interface and are core sensors linking electronic devices with biological nervous systems. Most ...

Optical image of bio-signal measurement electrode design developed by Professor Jang's research team. The electrode generates such a large force that it holds the circular magnet located under the ...

Electrodes made from carbon-nanotube fibers can both stimulate the brain and receive signals from neurons, which may improve prosthetic devices and brain stimulation therapies for neural disorders ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) The electrical stimulation of neural tissues forms the basis of current and emerging neural prostheses and therapies that can help alleviate symptoms like the intrusive tremors ...

The rapid progression of an aging society has led to a sharp rise in patients with neurodegenerative diseases such as dementia and Parkinson's disease, making it a critical issue in health care and ...

EPFL scientists have found a fast and simple way to make super-elastic, multi-material, high-performance fibers. Their fibers have already been used as sensors on robotic fingers and in clothing. This ...

Researchers have developed ultra-light tattoo electrodes that are hardly noticeable on the skin and make long-term measurements of brain activity cheaper and easier. Researchers have developed ...
