Scientists have developed a highly flexible, multi-functional fiber implant capable of simultaneously recording neural activity, delivering targeted medication, and stimulating the brain. Successfully tested in mice, this minimally invasive technology offers researchers a more precise way to study brain function and could lead to advanced treatments for conditions like epilepsy.
