Researchers from EPFL have restored the walking ability of paralyzed rats by implanting soft and flexible neural implants directly onto their spinal cord. The incredible new technique, which doesn’t cause inflammation or damage, uses both chemical and electrical stimulation. It’s hoped that this technology, called e-Dura, could be eventually be extended to humans, but the…
