The conventional method of micro-dialysis is complicated, doesn\u2019t permit true real-time analysis, and causes severe stress to animals. Present approaches that include electrochemical sensors can detect a handful of neurochemicals while fluorescent probes face limitations like poor photostability and the need for multiple separate optical probes to excite and capture signals. We aim to exploit our expertise in bioelectrochemistry, materials processing, fabrication processes, and heterogeneous assembly to overcome these issues and develop wireless neural probes for monitoring a wide range of previously undetectable neurochemicals in freely moving animals.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-6ee6306\" data-id=\"6ee6306\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8f19cd6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"8f19cd6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"318\" height=\"377\" src=\"https:\/\/research.ece.ncsu.edu\/bandodkargroup\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2020\/10\/Picture1.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-60\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/research.ece.ncsu.edu\/bandodkargroup\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2020\/10\/Picture1.png 318w, https:\/\/research.ece.ncsu.edu\/bandodkargroup\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2020\/10\/Picture1-253x300.png 253w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 318px) 100vw, 318px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-54fb072 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"54fb072\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-7490950\" data-id=\"7490950\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5a69866 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"5a69866\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><span style=\"background-color: transparent;font-size: 28px;font-weight: bold;white-space: normal;font-family: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-family )\">Unusual power&nbsp;sources<\/span><\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a71ad7c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a71ad7c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #27223e; font-family: helvetica-w01-roman, helvetica-w02-roman, helvetica-lt-w10-roman, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400;\">Power sources are a vital component of a wide range of tissue-integrated devices. However mainstream alternatives, such as, commercial batteries and supercapacitors not designed for such unique bio-applications. Their rigid and bulky form-factor and dependence\u00a0on toxic chemicals diminish\u00a0their attractiveness for wearable and implantable applications. While recent demonstrations of conformal, non-toxic power sources overcome some of the issues, these systems still face problems associated with short shelf-life and poor integration. We pursue to address these challenges by exploiting our experience in energy materials, electrochemistry, heterogenous fabrication, and integrated systems to develop new classes of non-traditional power sources in the form of biofuel cells and biocompatible batteries for advanced biomedical applications.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-19c6507\" data-id=\"19c6507\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-24b42db elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"24b42db\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/research.ece.ncsu.edu\/bandodkargroup\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2020\/10\/3A-1024x682.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-65\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/research.ece.ncsu.edu\/bandodkargroup\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2020\/10\/3A-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/research.ece.ncsu.edu\/bandodkargroup\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2020\/10\/3A-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/research.ece.ncsu.edu\/bandodkargroup\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2020\/10\/3A-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/research.ece.ncsu.edu\/bandodkargroup\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2020\/10\/3A-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/research.ece.ncsu.edu\/bandodkargroup\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2020\/10\/3A.jpg 1624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-ebab32b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ebab32b\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-9498dcf\" data-id=\"9498dcf\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ccd450a elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"ccd450a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Hybrid fabrication processes<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0e2cfd9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0e2cfd9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #27223e; font-family: helvetica-w01-roman, helvetica-w02-roman, helvetica-lt-w10-roman, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\">Lithography and printing are the predominant fabrication processes used for developing soft, stretchable sensors and energy devices for various bio-integrated applications. While lithography results in stretchable devices with performance similar to conventional systems, the narrow range of compatible materials is a major drawback. Alternatively, a rich variety of functional materials that are essential for sensors and energy devices can be processed via printing. Unfortunately, broadly used methods of developing stretchable printed systems require incorporation of considerable amounts of nonconductive elastomeric binders that lead to devices with sub-optimal performance.
