The promise of advanced neuroprosthetic systems to significantly improve the quality of life for many of the deaf, blind, or paralyzed population hinges on the development of effective, and safe, multi-channel neural interfaces for the central nervous system. In order to be successful, neural microelectrodes must have effectively long recording...

Endovascular polymer treatment is a relatively new and expanding field. Clinical uses include treatments for arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) and aneurysms. Current endovascular occlusion techniques use materials such as isobutyl-2-cyanoacrylate, polyvinyl alcohol, ethanol, hyaluronic acid gels, and cellulose acetate. These materials have many...
