Brain implant technology, which includes neurostimulators, is a rapidly growing area of research that could treat neurological diseases such as Parkinson’s, epilepsy and even treatment-resistant ...

MIT researchers are using living cells to target diseased brain areas and deliver tiny electronic devices that can modulate ...

A nano-sized medicine boosts the anti-cancer immune response and eradicates tumors in mice. Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, working with colleagues at ...

Using nanotechnology, they developed nasal drops that travel along the nerves of the nose into the central nervous system to ...

Explore how nanotechnology acts as the 'Convergence Engine' for AI materials discovery, CRISPR gene therapy delivery, and ...

MIT researchers say they've developed microscopic "circulatronics" technology that could one day provide noninvasive brain ...

When rats breathed in nano-size materials at a concentration routinely inhaled by factory welders, the tiny particles followed a rapid and efficient pathway from the nasal cavity to several regions of ...

TWO emerging nano-electronic technologies — one resting on the brain’s surface, the other navigating to it through the bloodstream — are redefining how scientists may one day treat neurological ...

Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, along with collaborators at Northwestern University, have developed a noninvasive approach to treat one of the most aggressive and ...

The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is meant to protect the brain from noxious agents; however, it also significantly hinders the delivery of therapeutics to the brain. Several strategies have been employed ...

Nanomedicine. 2012;7(8):1225-1233. Most of the strategies described for the passage of drugs across the BBB can be enhanced by nanotechnology and some of the mechanisms involved include: NPs open the ...
