Researchers at the Medical University of Vienna and ETH Zurich have developed a rehabilitation platform for people suffering from the long-term effects of a stroke that combines virtual reality with targeted sensory nerve stimulation.
Researchers led by Jiawei Yang, Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering, have designed a modular system that could potentially improve hydrogel implants in the body by customizing the materials for stiffness and functionality.
Associate Professor Hyun-Do Jung from Hanyang University and his team, based in Korea, have now developed an artificial intelligence (AI)-guided microneedle patch that actively changes shape at physiological temperature (37°C) to help close wounds while delivering regenerative therapy and antibacterial protection.
Researchers at Northwestern University, Sungkyunkwan University and other institutes recently developed a new implantable and bioresorbable system that could be used to electrically stimulate specific organs, muscles or nerves inside the body.
