Regenerative Engineering of Living Autologous Interfaces
RELAI aims to develop innovative bioelectronic technologies for neural interfacing to enhance information transduction and treat chronic conditions through advanced biohybrid interfaces.
Projectdetails
Introduction
RELAI will design and exploit a toolbox of innovative bioelectronic technologies and surgical constructs that will enable new possibilities in neural interfacing and revolutionise the way we transduce information to and from the human body.
Technology Overview
This new class of living bioelectronics will leverage bespoke electrode arrays and electrical stimulation paradigms to guide neural regeneration within autologous surgical constructs in vivo.
Hypothesis
The reinnervated constructs are hypothesised to form living high-resolution interfaces that will enable precise modulation of somatic and autonomic functions via injured and intact nerves.
Applications
This innovative class of biohybrid interfaces will enable a broad array of applications, including:
- Treatment of chronic conditions (such as diabetes)
- Enhanced operation of advanced neuroprostheses
- Realisation of supraphysiological sensing
