The IN-FET project aims to revolutionize the treatment of drug-resistant epilepsy by directly manipulating ion concentrations around neurons. It focuses on developing a device that can physiologically modulate neuronal activity using active polymers and nanoscale sensors, paving the way for advanced brain implants.
There is a need for a paradigm shift in the treatment of drug-resistant epilepsy.
Several routes have been explored to modulate or silence dysfunctional neural circuits, through genetic, electrical, magnetic or optical means.
All have serious limitations due to the unphysiological mechanisms used to regulate neuronal activity.
In IN-FET, we address this issue by manipulating the elementary building blocks of cell excitability: ions. IN-FET tackles the visionary idea of altering neuronal firing a…
