Brain stimulation project could treat wide range of neurological disorders
Published: 14 September 2023
The Wireless Deep Brain Stimulation Through Engineered Multifunctional Nanomaterials project, or BRAINSTORM, is setting out to develop tiny injectable magnets which could help restore function to damaged neurons in patients’ brains. The BRAINSTORM team, led by Professor Hadi Heidari (JWSE) hope that their research could treat, or even cure, conditions like depression, panic attacks, epilepsy, Alzheimer’s disease or Parkinson’s disease.
