This book is a must–have for newcomers and established researchers in this interdisciplinary field that connects scientists from chemistry, material science, biology, medicine and electrical engineering. The renowned editor has chosen contributions that cover a wide range of examples and issues in implantable bioelectronics. Different implants are covered, including biosensoric and prosthetic devices, as well as neural and brain implants. Ethical issues, novel materials, biocompatibility as well as energy–harvesting devices are also discussed. INDICE: EDITORIAL INTRODUCTION From implanted medical devices to future cyborgs.
