Soft and Stretchable Brain Interfaces
Today’s brain implants are inaccurate and stiff, making them unsafe and invasive to interface with the human brain. EPFL-spinoff Neurosoft Bioelectronics builds minimally invasive brain interfaces using soft electrodes for precise neurostimulation and brain data recording. Their flagship product targets severe tinnitus, a condition that affects 120M people worldwide. The startup is also developing a family of subdural electrodes intended for short-term clinical monitoring during brain tumor and epilepsy surgery.
