Graphene and microelectronics to decipher the unfathomable of neuronal diseases

The fifth issue of the CSIC Investiga magazine delves into the keys and functioning of the most complex biological structure: the human brain. It shows the basic research of the CSIC that tries to unravel mechanisms such as neurogenesis, or the generation of new neurons, and that addresses the dysfunctions of the nervous system in diseases such as Alzheimer’s, autism and Huntington’s disease, among others.

Graphene and microelectronics to decipher the unfathomable of neuronal diseases is the report that includes all the research carried out by the GAB at the Institute of Microelectronics of Barcelona (IMB-CNM, CSIC) on the matter and is reproduced here in its entirety.

The magazine also includes training for young CSIC scientists specializing in the brain within the report Ultrasounds and graphene sensors to study the brain. It includes Enrique Fernández, one of our pre-doctoral students who works on the design of flexible graphene neural sensors.
