Abstract

Implantable medical devices are used to supplement, monitor, or replace physiological function for a variety of medical conditions. In this article we highlight a set of topics that we believe could eventually be instrumental in bringing the next generation of implantable devices to existence. These include multi-scale numerical modeling and simulation, magnetic neural interfaces, high-performance telemetry, and the use and application of flexible antennas.
