Abstract
Implantable neurotechnologies are systems made up of several components that enable them to interface with the nervous system in a programmable and autonomous way. They comprise electrodes, a processor, a battery, connectors and cables, communication antennas, all encapsulated in a hermetically sealed casing to protect the electronics and prevent external interference.
The design and development of these components requires a multidisciplinary approach involving neuroscientists, engineers and clinicians.
