Canadian researchers have created a new implantable device that can be triggered to release drugs by passing a magnet over the device outside the skin. Kristopher Sturgis Shown is an image of the ...

A millimeter-scale, chip-less and battery-less implant can wirelessly monitor a series of parameters within your body and communicate with a wearable device attached on the skin. In a recent study ...

Researchers have developed a novel neural implant that can be controlled remotely using a magnetic field, paving the way for advancements in medical implants to help relieve pain and provide therapy ...

I’ve always been captivated bybiohackers who implant tiny magnetsunder their skin, giving themselves the ability to physically feel magnetic fields. However, I’m not quite dedicated enough to go ...

Table I. (Click to Enlarge) Roughness parameters after differing processes, from atomic force microscopy. Blood-contacting implants, such as stents, filters, and sutures, are part of a very special ...

Using a simple set of magnets, MIT researchers have come up with a sophisticated way to monitor muscle movements, which they hope will make it easier for people with amputations to control their ...
