Hi everyone, My mom is going in for cochlear implant surgery today, in a few minutes actually (we don't live in the same city). I was wondering if anyone on the board has had this done? If so, could you share a bit about the experience? (How was recovery, how long was it, did it help you in the end?) Thanks! ... Source: meningitis.emedtv.com --- 19 days ago

... the tooth used to be. This can create a lot of different problems from making it more difficult to chew food to making you self-conscious when you smile. Fortunately, there are ways to fix the problem. In the past, many people chose to get a temporary bridge or denture to fill the gap, but that meant messy adhesives and the pain of getting bits of food and seeds stuck between the denture and your gums. A much better solution is to consider getting a dental implant. Dental Implants provide a more permanent solution to replacing a missing tooth, and do not have the mess and... ...

By using an electrically conductive polymer to coat neural Implants, researchers at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor are increasing the devices' sensitivity. A snippet from MIT Tech Review : Martin [David Martin, professor at Dept. of Materials Science and Engineering @ University of Michigan --ed.] and his collaborators coat the electrodes with an electrically conductive polymer originally developed for electronic devices, such as organic LEDs and photovoltaics for solar cells. The polymer coating increases the surface area of the metal-biological interface, which in turn boosts performance of the electrode. "If you have lots of surface area, you can inject current more efficiently," says Douglas McCreery, director of the Neural Engineering Program at the Huntington Medical Research Institute, in Pasadena, CA. "That means less demand on batteries, but, probably more importantly, you're not recruiting the nasty electrochemical reactions that might be hazardous to surrounding tissue." The Michigan scientists electrochemically deposit the polymer onto the electrode, much like chroming a car bumper. By peppering the material with small amounts of another polymer, they can coax the conductive polymer to form a hairy texture along the metal shaft. Martin says that the approach mimics nature: the numerous tiny alveoli of the lungs, for example, increase the surface area available for the oxygen exchange between air and blood. Scie ...
