Can nanofluidic chemical release enable fast, high resolution neurotransmitter-based neurostimulation?
Artificial chemical stimulation could provide improvements over electrical neurostimulation. Physiological neurotransmission between neurons relies on the nanoscale release and propagation of specific chemical signals to spatially-localized receptors. Current knowledge of nanoscale fluid dynamics an...
