Neurosoft Bioelectronics is developing next-generation soft implantable electrodes to interface with the nervous system. Neural implants are medical devices made of electrodes that can record or stimulate the brain, spinal cord, or peripheral nerves to monitor or treat patients suffering from neurological disorders. However, current clinicaldevices are too stiff compared to the soft tissues of the body, which limits benefits for patients.
