- Cambridge researchers have developed #robotic nerve ‘cuffs’ that could help treat a range of #neurological conditions: www.eng.cam.ac...
A thin-film strip can be seen curling into spirals. When a #voltage is applied, this tiny, flexible device can then wrap around individual nerve fibres without damaging them.
