One of the more exciting topics scientists are working on is on how to connect brain and nerve cells directly to electronics. This is interesting for many reasons, such as helping us to learn how the brain works, or allowing very advanced prosthetic devices such as artificial eyes and fully functional artificial limbs. To achieve a connection to nerve cells, it is necessary to bring special electrodes close to these cells. Preferably, a large ...
