In conclusion, the light-responsive azobenzene polymer sensors developed in this study represent a significant leap in neuroscience. These flexible, biocompatible sensors provide high-resolution ...
To overcome these challenges, the MIT researchers developed thin-film devices from a soft polymer called azobenzene, that don’t damage cells they enfold. Due to a material transformation, thin sheets ...
