Princeton researchers create 3D brain-computer hybrid device with 70,000 living neurons
Soggy bottom. Skim the top, leave the rest on the tray.
Summary
Princeton University researchers have developed a 3D device that integrates roughly 70,000 living biological neurons with electronics to perform computational tasks like recognizing spatial and temporal electrical pulse patterns. Published in Nature Electronics, the study describes an "inside-out" approach using an ultra-thin, flexible epoxy-coated mesh of microscopic metal wires and electrodes as a scaffold for brain cells to grow around, enabling a hybrid biological-electronic computing system.
