Paper on "Printed Silk Microelectrode Arrays for Electrophysiological Recoding and Controlled Drug Delivery" out


Congratulations to the authors of the paper "Printed Silk Microelectrode Arrays for Electrophysiological Recoding and Controlled Drug Delivery" which is now published.

The paper describes novel silk-based microelectrode arrays (MEA) that are both soft and ultraflexible. The MEA is a sandwich construction of a silk–carbon nanocomposite in between a substrate and an insulator, both also made of silk. We have demonstrated how layers with various properties, including conductive, insulating or electro-responsive characteristics, can be achieved by varying the composition of the silk ink.
