A Brief Summary of the History of Noninvasive Brain Stimulation;
by Alvaro Pascual-Leone and Timothy Wagner; Center for Noninvasive Brain Stimulation, Harvard Medical School, Department of Neurology, Boston, USA

In 43 AD, Scribonious Largus, a court physician to the Roman emperor Claudius, recorded in his book ‘Compositiones Medicamentorum’, a most detailed collection of
drug compounds or recipes in use by physicians at that time. Among these he mentions the use of electrical currents to treat headaches and gout by applying electric torpedo fish to the affected regions or by placing painful extremities into a pool of water containing torpedo fish. The resulting electrical shocks presumably stunned the peripheral skin receptors, or affected spinal or brain structures inducing an immediate and residual numbness in the extremity and an associated transient period of pain relief. In this application electrical torpedo fish were a very early means oftranscutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) for therapeutic purposes. This form of treatment reportedly became particularly popular for the treatment of gouty arthritis. In the late 18th century, Luigi Galvani began laying the foundations for modern electrophysiology and bioelectric theory with his famous “animal electricity” experiments and the invention of the voltaic cell. While many people consider Galvani the father of modernelectrophysiology , French physician Charles Le Roy actually began experimenting with the use of electricity to influence physiological function in 1755.

In id="e6om">id="veq.">1870,two German researchers named [Eduard] Hitzig and [Gustav] Fritsch electrically stimulated the brains of dogs, demonstrating that certain portions of the brain were the centers of motor function. The American Dr. RobertBartholow, within four years, demonstrated that the same was true of human beings. By the turn of the [twentieth] century in Germany Fedor Krause was able to do a systematic electrical mapping of the human brain, using conscious patients undergoing brain surgery [Morgan, James P., “The First Reported Case of Electrical Stimulation of the Human Brain,” Journal of History of Medicine at http://www3.oup.co.uk/jalsci/scope/; Zimmerman, M., “Electrical Stimulation of the Human Brain,” Human Neurobiology, 1982].

Another early researcher into electrical stimulation of the brain was Walter Rudolf Hess, who began research into ESB in the 1930s, jolting patients’ brains with shocks administered through tiny needles that pierced the skull. His experiments [also] included the insertion of fine electrically conductive wires into the brains ofanaesthetized cats. To noone’s great surprise, given mild electrical stimulation the cats went beserk [Vance Packard, The People Shapers (New York: Bantam Books, 1977); “Hess, Walter Rudolf,” Encyclopedia Americana (New York: Harper & Row, 1969); “Hess, Walter Rudolph,” Funk &Wagnalls New Encyclopedia (New York: Funk & Wagnalls Inc., 1973)].

Heath also suggests that lobotomies be performed on patients, not for therapeutic reasons, but for the convenience of the hospital staff.

Robert Galbraith Heath; From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dr. Robert Galbraith Heath (1915 - 24 September 1999) was an American psychiatrist. He followed the theory of biological psychiatry that organic defects were the sole source of mental illness, and that consequently mental problems were treatable by physical means. Heath founded the Department of Psychiatry and Neurology at Tulane University, New Orleans, in 1949 and remained its Chairman until 1980 He performed many experiments there involving electrical stimulation of the brain via surgically implanted electrodes. This work was partially financed by the CIA and the US military. One of his collaborators was the Australian psychiatrist Harry Bailey, who later reminisced that they had used African Americans as subjects "because they were everywhere and cheap experimental animals". Heath also experimented with the drugbulbocapnine to induce stupor, using prisoners in the Louisiana State Penitentiary as experimental subjects. He later worked on schizophrenia, which he regarded as an illness with a physical basis.

John C. Lilly; From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John Cunningham Lilly (January 6, 1915 – September 30, 2001) was an American physician, psychoanalyst and writer. He was a pioneer researcher into the nature of consciousness using as his principal tools the isolation tank, dolphin communication and psychedelic drugs, sometimes in combination. Lilly was a qualified physician and psychoanalyst. He made contributions in the fields of biophysics, neurophysiology, electronics, computer science, andneuroanatomy. He invented and promoted the use of the isolation tank as a means of sensory deprivation. He was also a pioneer in attempting interspecies communication between humans and dolphins. After the war he trained in psychoanalysis and at the University of Pennsylvania where he began researching the physical structures of the brain and of its consciousness. In 1951 he published a paper showing how he could display patterns of brain electrical activity on a cathode ray display screen using electrodes he specially devised for insertion into a living brain. In 1953, he took a post studying neurophysiology with the US Public Health Service Commissioned Officers Corps. In 1954, following the desire to strip away outside stimuli from the mind/brain, he devised the first isolation tank, a dark soundproof tank of warm salt water in which subjects could float for long periods in sensory isolation. Dr. Lilly himself and a research colleague were the first to act as subjects in this research. His quest next took him to ask questions about the minds of other large-brained mammals and in the late 1950s he established a centre devoted to fostering human-dolphin
communication; the Communication Research Institute on St. Thomas in
the Virgin Islands. In the early id="cdpr">1960s,
Dr. Lilly and co-workers published several papers reporting that
dolphins could mimic human speech patterns. Subsequent investigations
of dolphin cognition have generally, however, found it difficult to
replicate his results.

Exploration of human consciousness: In the early sixties he
was introduced to psychedelics like LSD and ketamine and began a series
of experiments in which he took the psychedelic in an isolation tank
and/or in the company of dolphins. These events are described in his
books

Programming
and Metaprogramming in the Human Biocomputer: Theory and Experiments
and
The
Centre of the Cyclone, both published in
1972.

In the 1980s he led a project
which attempted to teach dolphins a computer-synthesised
language.

style="margin-left: 40px; font-family: tahoma;">Dr. Lilly laid out
the design for a future "communications laboratory" that would be a
floating living room where humans and dolphins could chat as equals and
where they would find a common language. He envisioned a time when all
killing of whales and dolphins would cease, "not from a law being
passed, but from each human understanding innately that these are
ancient, sentient earth residents, with tremendous intelligence and
enormous life force. Not someone to kill, but someone to learn from."
In the 1990s Lilly moved to the island of Maui in Hawaii, where he
lived most of the remainder of his life. His websitejohnclilly.com was
designed during this time by the New York based graphic artist, BigTwin
. His literary rights and scientific discoveries were housed within
Human Software, Inc., while his philanthropic endeavors were channelled
through the Human Dolphin Foundation. His legacy continues through the
John C. Lilly Research Institute, Inc.

id="z:xu1">style="font-size:78%;">Event-related potential / Evoked potential;
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaid="v.4v1">
style="font-size:78%;">An
event-related potential (ERP) is any stereotyped electrophysiological
response to an id="tbad0">internal or external stimulus. More simply, it is any
measured brain response that is directly the result of a thought or
perception...ERPs can be reliably measured using electroencephalography
(EEG ), a
procedure that measures electrical activity of id="h0e10">the brain through the skull and scalp. As the EEG
reflects thousands of simultaneously ongoing brain processes, the brain
response to a certain stimulus or event of interest is usually not
visible in the EEG. One of the most robust features of theERP response
is a response to unpredictable stimuli. This response-known as the P300
(or simply "P3")-manifests as a positive deflection in voltage
approximately 300 milliseconds after the stimulus is presented... While
evoked potentials reflect the processing of the physical stimulus,
event-related potentials are caused by the "higher" processes, that
might involve memory, expectation, attention, or changes in the
mental style="font-size:78%;">id="tbad1">state,
among others.... Though some ERP components are referred to with
acronyms (e.g., left anterior negativity - LAN), most components are
referred to by a preceding letter indicating polarity followed by the
typical latency in milliseconds. Thus, the N400ERP component is
described as a negative voltage deflection occurring approximately
400ms after stimulus onset, whereas the P600 component describes a
positive voltage deflection 600ms after stimulus onset. The stated
latencies forERP components are style="font-family:Tahoma;">often quite variable; for example, the
N400 component may exhibit a latency between 300ms - 500ms....
Experimental psychologists andid="wqq41" style="font-family:Tahoma;"> neuroscientists have
discovered many different stimuli, which elicit reliable EEG ERPs from
participants. The timing of these responses is thought to provide a
measure of the timing of the brain's communication or time of
information processing. For example, in the checkerboard paradigm
described above, in healthy participants the first response of the
visual cortex is around 50-70msec. This would seem to indicate that
this is the amount of time it takes for the transduced visual stimulus
to reach the cortex after light first enters
style="font-family:Tahoma;"> the eye. Alternatively, the P300
response occurs at around 300ms regardless of the stimulus presented:
visual, tactile, auditory, olfactory, gustatory, etc. Because of this
general invariance in regard to stimulus type, thisERP is understood to
reflect a higher cognitive response to unexpected and/or cognitively
salient stimuli. Due to the consistency of the P300 response to novel
stimuli, a brain-computer interface can be constructed which relies on
it. By arranging many signals in a grid, randomly flashing the rows of
the grid as in the previous paradigm, and observing the P300 responses
of a subject staring at the grid, the subject may
communicatestyle="font-family:Tahoma;"> which stimulus he is looking at, and
thus slowly "type" words.... Sensory evoked potentials (SEP) are
recorded from the central nervous system following stimulation of sense
organs (for example, visual evoked potentials elicited by a flashing
light or changing pattern on a monitor; auditory evoked potentials by a
click or tone stimulus presented through earphones) or by tactile
orsomatosensory evoked potential (SSEP ) elicited by tactile or
electrical stimulation of a sensory or mixed nerve in the periphery.
They have been widely used in clinical diagnostic medicine
since the 1970s, and also in intraoperative neurophysiology monitoring
(IONM), also known as surgical neurophysiology. There are three kinds
of evoked potentials in widespread clinical use since the 1970s:
auditory evoked potentials, usually recorded from the scalp but
originating atbrainstem level (ABR, BAER, BSER, BAEP, BSEP); visual
evoked potentials, and somatosensory evoked potentials, which are
elicited by electrical st imulation of peripheral
nerve...

José
Manuel Rodriguez Delgado; From Wikipedia, the free
encyclopedia

id="wgn5" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Dr. José
Manuel Rodriguez Delgado (1915) was a Spanish professor of physiology
at Yale University, famed for his research into electrical stimulation
of regions of the brain. Delgado was born in Ronda, Spain in 1915. In
1946 he began a fellowship at Yale, and was invited by the noted
physiologist John Fulton to join the department of physiology in 1950.
Delgado's research interests centered on the use of electrical signals
to evoke responses in the brain. His earliest work was with cats, but
later did experiments with monkeys and humans. Much of Delgado's work
was with an invention he called astimoceiver , a radio which joined a
stimulator of brain waves with a receiver which monitored E.E.G. waves
and sent them back on separate radio channels. This allowed the subject
of the experiment full freedom of movement while allowing the
experimenter to control the experiment. Thestimoceiver could be used to
stimulate emotions and control behavior. According to Delgado, "Radio
Stimulation of different points in the amygdala and hippocampus in the
four patients produced a variety of effects, including pleasant
sensations, elation, deep, thoughtful concentration, odd feelings,
super relaxation, colored visions, and other responses." Delgado stated
that "brain transmitters can remain in a person's head for life. The
energy to activate the brain transmitter is transmitted by way of radio
frequencies." (Source: Cannon; Delgado, J.M.R., "Intracerebral Radio
Stimulation and recording in Completely Free Patients," in Schwitzgebel
and Schwitzgebel. The most famous example of the stimoceiver in action
occurred at a Cordoba bull breeding ranch. Delgado stepped into the
ring with a bull which had had a stimoceiver implanted. The bull
charged Delgado, who pressed a remote control button which appeared to
cause the bull to stop its charge. Delgado claimed that the stimulus
caused the bull to lose its aggressive instinct; skeptics suggested
that the electrical impulse had caused the bull to turn aside. Although
the bull incident was widely mentioned in the popular media, Delgado
believed that his experiment with a female chimpanzee named Paddy was
more significant. Paddy was fitted with astimoceiver that detected a
brain signal called a spindle. When a spindle was detected, the
stimoceiver responded with a signal to the central gray area of Paddy's
brain, producing an 'aversive reaction'. Within hours her brain was
producing many fewer spindles.

During interviews, intracerebral electrical
stimulation of sharply localized areas in the temporal lobe of a young
woman with psychomotor epilepsy consistently produced ego-alien
ideational experiences similar to those observed by Penfield. The
responses were associated with considerable anxiety and with evoked
electrical seizure activity. The use of the interview as the
observational situation and careful study of the interview
tape-recordings made it possible to discover that the content of
theideational experiences was often a function of her prestimulation
"mental content." This finding led to an examination of Penfield's
formulations and to some alternative hypotheses about mechanisms that
might be involved in psychic responses to temporal-lobe stimulation.

Patent # 3,393,279 dated 16 July
1968
In 1958, Dr Flanagan, then a child of 14 developed a
radio transmitter that made the brain into a radio reciever. This
device transmits acoustic information to the brain by means of radio
waves into the skin, bypassing the 8th Crainial Nerve. When he applied
for a patent on the device, the patent examiner rejected the whole
thing saying that such a device would go against all known laws of
science. Over the following years, Dr Flanagan fought
againstinsurmontable odds to prove that the device did indeed work. In
the meantime, LIFE magazine ran a major article on Flanagan and the
Neurophone , naming him as one of the top ten scientists in the US at
the age of 17! In a final desperate move Flanagan flew to the patent
office with a model of his invention and successfully demonstrated the
device on a deaf employee in the patent examiner's office. The deaf man
heard music for the first time in 15 years and broke down into tears.
The examiner declared that theNeurophone was indeed a basic patentable
device and approved the patent for release. Patent #
3,393,279 dated 16 July 1968.........

In the years that Dr Flanagan fought to recieve
deserved recognition by the patent office, he grew into manhood and was
working on Man- dolphin Communications for the US Navy when the patent
was finally issued. While involved in Man-Dolphin research, he became
interested in nerve signal information encoding, and began to develop
electronic circuits that duplicated the process of pattern recognition
observed in the human nervous system. This work led to research in
Cryptography. During that period he developed a top secret sound
scrambler that was virtually impossible to decode. Part of the
scrambler was based on his research into nerve encoding.

style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">id="ooxr">Patent # 3,647,970 dated 7 Mar 1972.

style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"> Dr Flanagan believed
that the pattern of nerve encoding used in the human speech recognition
system could be used to make a betterNeurophone. He succeeded in
perfecting an electronic curcuit that he believes duplicates the
precise encoding of the Cochlea and 8th Crainial Nerve. When he applied
for a patent on the new circuit, the patent aplication was immediately
placed under top secrecy by the National Security Agency. The only
explnation given at the time was that the circuit had potential uses in
the defense of the country. Dr Flanagan was happy that the government
considered that his device could be used in his country's defense. The
only problem was that the government wanted the device free, and he
spent 14 years on it.
He hired attorneys and challenged the secrecy
order for over five years. At the end of that period, the patent was
released from secrecy and was approved for issue by the patent office.

discovery was made by Steven Kaali, MD and William Lyman, associate
Professor of Pathology at Einstein College of Medicine in N.Y.C. It was
shown that a minute current (50-100 micro amperes) can alter outer
protein layers of the HIV virus and prevent it's attachment to receptor
sites. (Science News March 30, 1991, pg. 207). The viruses loose the
ability to make an enzyme crucial to their reproduction. This process
may also reverse Epstein Barr (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome), Hepatitis and
Herpes B. Responsible users of this technology who are HIV positive,
may expect a Negative P24 surface antigen orPCR test (no more HIV
detectable in blood) after 30 days. A simplified version of this unit
now makes self help feasible. The potential to clean andpotentize the
blood banks of the world with this instrument is truly staggering. Bob
Beck's Sept. 96 Explore Magazine Article notes a study on the life span
of blood cells sealed under cover slips on microscope slides. While the
average life of "normal" blood is about 4 days; blood cells treated
with a mildmicrocurrent live for well over a month!

Roxanne Kremer's work on interspecies communication with the Pink
Amazon River Dolphins, Dr. Flanagan has made impressive technical
contributions. In February, 1968, he applied for a patent on a device
for translating human speech into dolphin language and vice/versa. This
was a result of studies with dolphins in the lagoon of a small island
off the coast of Oahu, Hawaii. A vocabulary of 30 words was discovered
before a startling intervention. Six months after applying for the
patent, it was placed under secrecy order #756, 124 by a U.S.Government
surveillance agency. Five years later, another hard-fought legal battle
rescinded the suppression and patent #3,647,970 was granted on March
7th 1972. This speech processing patent is actually used as the circuit
in the present version of the Neurophone.

the use of a blinded observer who was not aware of the sentence given

liquid medium, preferably water, in which both the probe and the target
are completely immersed. For imaging applications, the probe is
positioned with respect to the target such that the target is in the
near field of the antenna.

Elliot Valenstein; From
Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

id="di:f" style="font-family:tahoma;">style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Elliot S. Valenstein,
PhD, is a professor emeritus of psychology and neuroscience at the
University of Michigan. His theories challenge the conventional
assumption that mental illness is biochemical, rejecting the 'chemical
imbalance' theories used by drug companies in marketing their products,
contending people should be suspicious of such claims while suggesting
the targets of the marketing are usually medicating themselves
unnecessarily. In his 1998 book, Blaming the Brain: The Truth about
Drugs and Mental Health,Valenstein argues that while psychotropic drugs
sometimes do work, they do not even begin to address the real cause of
mental disorders, since in his view biochemical theories are an
entirely "unproven hypothesis" used to excuse what he sees as often
unconscionable marketing practices of the drug industry.Valenstein
acknowledges a combination of medications and psychotherapy often
offers the best chance of success at treating common disorders, but
stresses no one knows exactly why.Valenstein examines the various
special interests behind the ascent in the latter half of the 20th
century of purely biopsychiatric hypotheses, which appeal strongly to
pharmaceutical companies. Their commercial motives are driven by the
enormous, multi-billion dollar stakes involved in the intensely
competitive marketing for such drugs as Prozac,Zyprexa, and Zoloft.
Aggressive marketing, Valenstein contends, has dramatically changed
practices in the mental health profession. He explores other aspects of
the growing influence of drug companies, which sponsor research, lobby
government officials, market directly to both consumers and primary
care physicians (the primaryprescribers of psychiatric drugs), and
pressure psychiatric journals to downplay studies casting doubt on drug
safety and efficacy. In 2000,Valenstein presented "A Critique of
Current Biochemical Theories of Mental Illness" as the keynote speaker
at the Behavior Analysis Association of Michigan (BAAM) convention. In
his 1986 book Great and Desperate Cures: The Rise and Decline of
Psychosurgery and Other Radical Treatments for Mental Illness,
Valenstein explores the history of lobotomy’s heyday, in the 1940s and
1950s, while questioning the legitimacy of widespread use of such
unproven medical treatments. The truth, saysValenstein , is that we are
only at the dawn of an understanding of mental illness. "The factors
that fostered (the operations’) development and made them flourish,"
explainsValenstein, "are still active today." Published books:

Digest IEDM (International Electronic Devices Meeting) 2001, 16/1

Abstract: The electrical interfacing of
nerve cells and semiconductor microstructures is considered. The
coupling of the electron conducting silicon with ion conducting neurons
relies on a close contact of the chip and the cell membrane with its
ion channels. Excitation of neuronal activity is achieved by capacitive
interaction with the channels and recording by the response of
transistors to open channels. Integratedneuroelectronic systems are
obtained by outgrowth of a neuronal net on silicon and by two-way
interfacing of the neuronal and electronic components.

Electronic MEMS for triggered delivery.,

doi:10.1016/j.addr.2003.07.012
Abstract: Implantable electronic
devices such as pacemakers and neural implants are often used for
electrical stimulation. The usage ofmicrofabrication techniques to
produce microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) has allowed engineers to
address a wider range of clinical indications. A new direction in the
area of MEMS technology is the goal of achieving pulsatile drug
delivery. The digital capabilities of MEMS may allow greater temporal
control over drug release compared to traditional polymer-based
systems, while the batch-processing techniques used in the
microelectronics industry can lead to greater device uniformity and
reproducibility than is currently available to the pharmaceutical
industry. A repertoire of structures, includingmicroreservoirs,
micropumps, valves, and sensors, is being developed that will provide a
strong foundation for the design of integrated, responsive MEMS for
drug delivery.
2.1. Neural implants
The
electrical nature of MEMS devices makes them potentially useful for
applications whereby neural stimulation, recording, or interfacing is
desirable. Prostheses for neural stimulation are one of the more common
embodiments ofMEMS for neural implants.
Micromachined silicon
microprobes developed at the University of Michigan have come to be
widely used [16]. These microprobes allow stimulation of and recording
from neurons in the central nervous system [17, 18 and 19], as well as
delivery of chemicals at the cellular level [20]. Some researchers are
developing interfaces that will eliminate the need tohardwire these
microprobes to an external power supply and signal processing unit
[17]. Other types of implantable neural stimulators have been developed
for the treatment of chronic pain [21]. These devices are designed to
deliver a current stimulus to the region of the spinal cord that
corresponds to the painful portion of thepatient's body. The system
consists of the surgically implanted module, an external computer
system that is used by the physician to program the module through
induction, and an external switch that the patient uses to activate the
device.Polyimide sieve electrodes have also been used to stimulate and
regenerate peripheral nerve axons, while cuff electrodes can interface
with intact peripheral nerve bundlesnoninvasively in the absence of
physiological electrical activation, for example, in the case of a
spinal cord injury [22]. Other researchers have developed microprobes,
fabricated through electroplating and other microfabrication
procedures, which can be used to stimulate the deep-brain regions such
as the subthalamic nucleus [23]. These devices could be used in
patients with Parkinson's disease to reduce or eliminate tremors.
Neural
prostheses are also used for stimulation of paralyzed muscles in order
to prevent atrophy [24 and 25]. These devices have been shown to be
both safe and effective in animals, and have an exceedingly small
volume (approximately 100 times smaller than conventional cochlear
implants and pacemakers) that allows them to be implanted using a
catheter insertion tool. An implantable neural stimulator has also been
developed and tested in dogs as a treatment for incontinence
[26].Polyimide microelectrodes that are microfabricated via
spin-coating and either photolithography or dry etching have also been
used to record EMG signals from cockroaches during walking [27].
Other
researchers have focused on the interface between the neural implant
and the nerve cell itself and are exploring ways to improve the
integration between the implant and the physiological environment. For
example,microcontact printing (μCP) has been used to pattern
poly-Image-lysine self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on gold
microelectrode arrays in order to control the geometry of a neuronal
network grown in vitro [28]. Rat hippocampal neurons consistently grew
near the electrode regions that had the poly-Image-lysine SAMs ,
suggesting that this method may improve the likelihood and the fidelity
of recording electrical activity of the neuronal cells. Some work has
investigated the growth and function of dorsal root ganglia neurons on
a flexiblepolydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) substrate having 20-μm-wide
channels that contain electrodes made from a conducting polymer
hydrogel (poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) doped with
poly-(styrenesulfonate) [29]. The polymer hydrogel electrodes had lower
impedance than electrodes made out of other materials typically used
for neural recordings, indicating better sensitivity for recording
nerve signals at physiological frequencies. Directed cell growth of the
neurons along the channels was achieved onPDMS substrates that were
coated with laminin. The low impedance, large charge delivery capacity,
and ability to chemically modify the hydrogel, as well as the
flexibility of the PDMS substrate, may offer significant advantages
over neural MEMS based solely on silicon and traditional
microfabrication materials. A polyimide-based biohybrid device has also
been developed that consists of a sieve-shaped stimulating microprobe
that is seeded with gene-manipulated neural cells that have an
increased resistance to apoptosis [30]. This device is designed for
implantation and outgrowth of the seeded nerve cells to create a
junction with a particular skeletal muscle of interest, in the case
where the motor neuron andneuromuscular junction necessary for movement
of skeletal muscle are absent.

Draper Laboratory’s biomedical engineering capabilities
are
being applied to the development of first-of-a-kind biomedical devices
and technologies for applications in health care diagnostics,
therapeutics, and national defense. The largest collaboration in which
Draper currently is involved is the Center for Integration of Medicine
and Innovative Technology (CIMIT), of which we are a founding member
with Partners HealthCare and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology
(MIT). Other important partnerships include collaborations with
Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary; with academic groups at MIT,
Harvard University, and Tufts University; and with commercial companies
in the sensing and pharmaceuticals businesses. Biomedical applications
such as point-of-care diagnostic sensors and drug delivery devices
require a wide range of technical expertise and engineering
disciplines, and the Laboratory has strong capabilities in many of
these domains. Interdisciplinary groups of mechanical engineers,MEMS
fabrication experts, chemists, and systems engineers are designing
high-precision miniature components and devices for implantable sensors
and drug delivery systems. For implantable use, small size and low
power are crucial; microelectronics design engineers are developing
low-power electronics which minimize volume and enable insertion of
devices into locations such as the eye and ear for a variety of
therapeutic and diagnostic applications. Novelmicrofluidic devices,
which function as small pumps and valves, are being designed and
fabricated in the MEMS laboratory; these components are approximately
20 times smaller than commercially available hardware with similar
functionality and performance. Packaging of small implantable and
diagnostic devices is accomplished using advanced sealing and packaging
techniques andbiocompatible materials and processes. Many biomedical
engineering projects are conducted at the nexus of biology,
microfabrication technology, and computation. Such multidisciplinary
efforts include the fabrication of replacement tissues and organs for
therapeutic applications such as transplantation, the advancement of
tools for drug discovery, and the construction of testbeds for the

thinner than a human

style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">style="font-size:0;">style="font-size:0;">by Bernadette Tansey, SF Gate, San Francisco Chronicle Staff
Writer, Thursday, Nov 1,
2007

style="font-size:0;">style="font-size:0;">Physicists at UC Berkeley say they have produced the world's
smallest radio out of a single carbon nanotube that is 10,000 times
thinner than a human hair. Professor Alex Zettl led a team that
developed the minuscule filament, which can be tuned to receive AM or
FM transmissions. Zettl
Research Group, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and University of
California at Berkeley Zettl said the device, built by graduate student
Kenneth Jensen, is the first radio within the size range of
nanotechnology, which covers inventions no larger than 100 billionths
of a meter. Thenanoradio is 100 billion times smaller than the first
commercial radios of the early 20th century. It is a thousand times
smaller than the most minute radios in use today, which are based on
silicon chip technology.The research team has no commercial partners
yet, butZettl said the practical applications of the nanoradio could
include cell phones, climate-monitoring systems and radio-controlled
diagnostic probes that could move through the human bloodstream. As
long as 10 years ago, scientists had managed to build individual
components of a radio on thenanoscale, he said. But Zettl and his
colleagues figured out how to make a single nanotube perform all the
functions of a radio: It serves as an antenna, tuner, amplifier and
demodulator. The demodulator eliminates any frequencies from a radio
transmission except the signal to be played, such as a song. class="georgia md" id="i0y:849">The nanotube can also function as a
transmitter. Theoretically, thousands of nanoradios distributed through
the air or in the bloodstream could send back signals about air quality
or the state of a patient's cells, Zettl said. Carbon nanotubes are
immensely strong compounds made of carbon atoms linked in a structure
that looks like chicken wire. The carbon sheets can be formed into
hollow tubes.Zettl's research team tweaked the nanotube structures and
found that multi-walled cylinders - tubes within tubes - were better
for picking up AM and FM transmissions. Single-wallednanotubes were
best for receiving the frequencies used in cell phones. The team built
a transmitter in the lab based on conventional electronics, and first
proved that thenanoradio could pick up and play "Layla" about 10 months
ago. But the scientists held the news for publication in the journal
Nano Letters, which posted it online on Wednesday. Along with Jensen
and Zettl, the co-authors of the paper were UC Berkeley postdoctoral
fellow Jeff Weldon and physics graduate student Henry Garcia. The
project was funded by the National Science Foundation and the
Department of Energy.
